Boost Poultry Profits: Make Cheap Chicken Feed at Home, Cut Costs!

• Rising maize prices increase feed costs, reducing farmer profits; homemade feed can alleviate this financial burden.
• Maintain correct balance of chemicals, medicines, and supplements in homemade feed, following expert recommendations to avoid negative reactions.
• Adjust feed types by age: 'pre-starter' for chicks, 'starter' until 1200g, then 'finisher' until sale for optimal development.
• Store feed in a dry place, protected from sunlight; avoid dampness and reusing sacks from other farms to prevent infection.
• Ensure proper grinding for digestion, use a good mixer for even nutrient distribution, and check quality and expiry of all ingredients like maize and soybean meal.
