How to start chicken farming Begin by constructing a good house for your chickens. It doesn't need to be fancy. You can use any type of material as long as your chickens have a shelter that is secured so that no rats or birds can enter it. You need to know the size of the house you will need and how many chickens it can carry. Inside the house, the floor must have bedding. This can be wood shavings, grass, straw, cudbords, sawdust, etc. They help make sure the house is warm, dry, and easy to clean. You need to know how many feeders and drinkers you need for your chickens. One feeder can feed 10 to 15 chickens, and one drinker can accommodate up to 20 chickens. Start with a small number of chicks or a batch of 100 chicks for you to learn. We learn from each batch, and no batch is the same. You can buy 100-day-old chicks from your local hatchery. Broiler chickens fully grow in 6–7 weeks. One chicken will consume 4.5 kg of feed in six weeks. That's 450 kg of feed for 100 broilers. Other costs include medication for your chickens. Once your chickens reach 4 weeks, you should start marketing them so that once they reach 6 weeks, you can sell them as soon as possible. After 6 weeks, they will be eating feed (profit), which adds up to the cost of producing them. Marketing is very important in any business.
