Broiler poultry farm (500 birds per batch)

A broiler farm raises meat chickens from day-old chicks to market weight in about six to seven weeks, then sells them live or dressed. Your buyers are households, restaurants, suya and pepper-soup spots, hotels, and the many people who want chicken for December, Easter and Sallah. Chicken is part of almost every Nigerian celebration, and demand around the big cities rarely goes away.
