I'm currently working on these 3 breeds and they are 4 weeks old now. They are 50 each ie 150 birds. Abor Acre weighs 1kg- 1.2kg. COBB weights 1.1kg-1.4kg. The Ross 308 weighs 1.1kg -1.4kg. All on the same feed intake. The Cobb is generally doing better that the rest and Abor Acre is doing the least.
Arbor Acres lags in feed conversion from wk 1 - 7. After then, they grow fastest of them all. Ross 308 takes off immediately, but they start to have issues dragging themselves after 7 weeks because of their short height and heavy weight. Talking from experience.
Thank you very much. I'm looking to start my poultry farm with the Arbor Acres breed. I've gained some very good information from your video. God bless you sir.
They are hybrids .. They can produce offsprings with the same genetic makeup as them since they r lab chickens.. Yes they do lay eggs n hatch but the offsprings is not as gud as them that's why most people just buy chicks instead of breeding
They often are 1st or 2nd génération crosses, essentially the breed he is referring to is the offspring of two différent breed, it's really hard to make this on your own unless you are really into massive scale production
Good evening sir , you are the best I had ever seen much love . Sir pls I would love the organic method , but I don’t have scale to check the quantity! I don’t know if It will still be effective if I add excess organic matter ...
Thanks and I love your videos. I’m a new farmer trying to invest in the 6wks production. Please I think I will need to talk to you privately basically on how to get the good breeds. Thanks In anticipation.
Good day Sir, please am into the pure organic method but I observed that my chicken are opening their mouth in fact one today and the ten weeks old. Please I really did your assistance. Tnanks
Height might not matter for processed chicken. But, for live birds market it matters a lot. A tall bird and heavy bird is giant-looking and would certainly attract the buyer than a heavy but short one
do you recommend purchasing day old chicks or hatching them? I bought incubator, still struggling with the right information and finding the right supplier for fertilized broiler eggs ! any kind of information will help. great video thank U
@@llewellynsiduna6714 you forgot the "broiler part" there is a reason most of those don't go past 8-10 weeks, the mortality rate go way up due to their massive size they die of heart attack, broken legs, deep breast atrophy and the list goes on. And even then if you manage to keep a couple alive long enough to breed, if the eggs are even viable, you will get a whole range of different chicks since instead of getting 50%-50% genetic code from their grandparents like their parents (F1 cross) they will be at most 50% like their parents and 25% like their grand-parents, so you can understand you may end up with all sorts of chimeras, wich may grow way too fast and die in the egg, regular old chickens with slow growth, relatively normal broiler or some kind of super broiler who grow tall, big n strong while requiring much less feed if you are insanely lucky (but so far the many people who attempted this idea of yours haven't gotten this lucky) and whatever else you can think about. Unless you are a multinational company working in close contact with people who really know their stuff about chickens genetic, eed to protein growht ratio etc.. going down this slippery slope will most likely be a waste of time and money. But hey if you looses 100% of the time you don't try so you could definitely purusue this idea, get insanely lucky and maybe be that 1/1million person to create à breed wich will forever the food industry.
I like that, and I will be glad to help dissolve your confusion. Olam (Chikun) is COBB 500), and that breed does pretty well too. However, I get that result with Ross in only 5 Weeks. *You should see this for clarity* ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-whAj9CrxJwk.html
I tried getting the address of NPG, Zartech, olam or cascada online as i'm interested in gettimg cobb 500..but there are so many impersonators online..can you help me with their real address? Thank you
@@diyagric we finally couldn't see again last week my phone went off so I couldn't call you as agreed but we will meet when I return to your Ifo, thank you & well-done.
@@indigenoustv1 I was actually expecting your call. I knew something must have happened because you sounded serious. No problems. May God keep us till then and beyond
