One thing I have noticed among UG farmers, at least those I have seen on Utube, is the use of materials available to them. And I really love it ❤,it drastically reduces the cost. Approximately $500.00 for 2000 capacity chicken house is relatively cheap. Doc, I can say you're spectacular in this field. More grace for 'farm up'
This is very informative and transparent! I’m gathering information about building a chicken farm in my country Somalia and this helps a lot! And I like that you shopped everything locally even from your father! Good job and good luck with your business!
Good job you are the only person I ever see so far who can give better information especially when it come cost. You put everything in dollar that why you have lot of Fan around the world watching from Sierra Leone . Some other channels do there cost in there local currency no body will understand what he or she is talking about only dose who live in that country. Thank you
The amount is not cheap but you've really reduced the cost as much as possible. So it's definitely worth it. You are an inspiration to many. Wishing you the very best in your ventures!
Thanks sir for giving that precious information on poultry farming you are a such inspiration and life changer to us especially Africans continue with good work bro big up man💪
That's descent pricing for the number of birds it holds. This is a nice guideline for a coop I'll be constructing in the next 2 months, 1,000 capacity, although I'll be using mud and sticks for the walls. Cheers from your neighbor in Tanzania.
Dr. I'm from the Philippines and your subscriber. Your videos about your farm, from start up to now motivates me a lot. And i want to start here in the Philippines with small flocks. But my plan is to buy a parents stock breeder for me to produce a layer, and the breeder i want is the rhode island white ang rhode island red just like what you have to produce brown eggs. As you said in your videos the f1 of that breed is the best for egg laying and it can free range. Dr. Can you help me how to buy my parents stock as you mention you bought the breeders from europe and can they ship here in the philippines. Thank you in advance doc. I hope you notice this.
This is not cheap as many will see it. In many places within Uganda this house will cost more than that actually. Let me organise myself.. I will be grateful for your cheat codes in this line of business 🙏 Thank you for inspiring many Dr Daniel 🙏
Unfortunately in Kenya it'll cost 5 times more because of heavy taxation of construction materials from The Kenya government led by a Taxi collector Zakayo 😅
You are doing a goold job brother, l am in U.S. But am from Ghana. I want to come home to start something and was thinking of the poultry farming. I heard on your other video you help other people to start poultry farms. Brother kindly help me I will appreciate it
Farm up that’s crazily cheap. In Cameroon just the roof will cost you more than 5k dollars. I bought roofing sheets for a 10 by 5 for that price. I wish I was a Ugandan
Thank you so much Dr Daniel. Through ure inspiration last year I shared with 500 layer birds. But this year I want to get 1000 birds. Now am laying down my chicken coop of 2000 birds having seen this video
Thats amazing. Very Affordable in Comparison to building in Jamaica. Food is very affordable I spend about 70 USD a week for food for my family of 4. Whats the cost to build a 3 bedroom house in Uganda?
A year back I watched most of your videos now am back again coz I have made up my mind, and I wanted such knowledge, I want to build mine in kalisizo for atleast 1k chicks and when I checked the money u used bro for the law earners it is some how big more than 19millions namanyi gampedemu.
Hi Doctor Daniel I just have one question to ask did you put any layer of concrete at the top section or its just timber ,and if it's just timber with the plywood, can't the litter above drop down or in case water pours at the top can't it go through the litter and get to the bottom floor. Thanks for the information always looking forward for your videos.
Good afternoon bro you are so amazing thanks for the knowledge you are giving us who are planning to start the business I wanted to know the price of each eucalyptus timber please
Doctor Daniel, I will need to construct a similar house to this in six month's time. I was along thinking of a single storey (ground floor) until I watched this video. I would like to talk to the man who made the frames. I am in Tororo.
Hi Dr Daniel, I see you have total of 2 floors in one construction, now, is it that 1st floor can contain 2500 birds, and 2nd floor can also contain 2500 birds? Or it’s the first and second floor can contain a total of 2500 birds? Thanks for the information. Very helpful
@@HotNoobVery true, same here in Australia 🌏🦘. In Australia to build this type of building 🏢🏫 might cost about about $200.000 USD. And you might need 30 years loans to construct this type of building 🏢🏫. Australia is a super expensive country to live.
Thank you doc for that elaboration, and in my country Zambia thus looks a bit expensive due to timber is not much as cheap and available as in Uganda. So which one can be more expensive if you were to construct the same house using bricks?? Thank you.
Is this Math Correct *Notes on Chicken Layers* 1 acre can accomodate about *5,000 layers* *1 chicken* will lay between *4-5 eggs a week* There are 52 weeks in a year 4 eggs per week = 208 eggs a year. 208 eggs a year multiply by 5,000 layers = *1,040,000 eggs a year* A tray has 30 eggs 1,040,000 eggs = 34,600 trays per year or 94 trays per day A tray of egg is about 10,300/= whole sale price. So 34,600 trays of eggs = *356m per year on 1 acre or 30m per month.* So, *1 acre can generate you gross sales of 30m.* *Costs of raising 5000 layers on 1 acre is about 60%* of total sales which is ugx 18m So profit is about about ugx 12m per acre. If you have *4 acres*, you can make *profits* of *48m per month*
Nice explanation but for someone who is starting poutry farming you need one year of sacrifice othwrwise you can not afford to construct a huge chicken house like this
Me personally though, I will make the foot bath wider by at least one more foot all around so that lazy workers or helpers don't just step on the edge and go directly into the farm without dipping into the disinfectant.
To live in Uganda, you need to visit nearest Uganda embassy to get more information. And also try to visit Uganda first before making final decision. This is what I did last year. I'm living in Australia, and I want to relocate back to Africa. So I visited some selected countries in Africa. To see which one would suit me. If you are not from Africa and you want to relocate to Africa. Please visit your desire country first before moving.

Dr.Daniel I've been watching your videos from 2018.Im from Kenya and gathering materials to construct this type this year 2024
@@ramram3284 gather materials to build a cheaper chicken house since you are starting.
Hi there. What does the word "Juba" mean?
This is not cheap as many will see it.
In many places within Uganda this house will cost more than that actually.
Let me organise myself.. I will be grateful for your cheat codes in this line of business 🙏
Thank you for inspiring many Dr Daniel 🙏
You have worked so much by reducing the cost of the materials here in Ghana it's going to be far more higher than it has cost you in UGD.
Unfortunately in Kenya it'll cost 5 times more because of heavy taxation of construction materials from The Kenya government led by a Taxi collector Zakayo 😅
Thanks for the projection. Would kindly help us know the measurements in terms of height for the lower/upper sections and the distance between poles.
You are the best Dr Daniel God bless you 🙏 ❤️. You are really giving a great gift for us.
You are doing a goold job brother, l am in U.S. But am from Ghana. I want to come home to start something and was thinking of the poultry farming. I heard on your other video you help other people to start poultry farms.
Brother kindly help me
I will appreciate it
WOW, incredible!!! Thanks Doc 👏👍
Farm up that’s crazily cheap. In Cameroon just the roof will cost you more than 5k dollars. I bought roofing sheets for a 10 by 5 for that price. I wish I was a Ugandan
In Liberia just my Roofing was almost 10k USD!
Wow. That's crazy
That's the case in Nigeria as well
Thank you so much Dr Daniel. Through ure inspiration last year I shared with 500 layer birds. But this year I want to get 1000 birds. Now am laying down my chicken coop of 2000 birds having seen this video
I started a farm of 500 layer birds and its laying up 93%
Wow i just love the way you are never mean with the information 🎉
Good day Dr. Thanks for the break down. Is it possible to tell the size of the timber used and qoantity?
You can calculate the floor area
Well done mi mentor, big up to ur self
amazing! thank you for this doctor D!
How do you manage damage caused by termites on the poles, as well as the corrosive effect of rain water on the iron sheets?
I belive the iron sheets are inoxidable.
We place a plastic bag around it and concrete. Can also treat with used oil
Oh, how much for the chickens and what are the profit margins?
Can you ship it to Asia? Frozen poultry?
Keep up the good job Dr.

Thanks brother almghty God bless you abundantly, am asking about feed formulation in layers.
Very impressive. Pls doctor, do you have videos on poultry diseases and how to treat them?
Thanks doctor for the info. What kind of affordable structure do you recommend for the store and living quarters for workers?
Hi Doctor Daniel I just have one question to ask did you put any layer of concrete at the top section or its just timber ,and if it's just timber with the plywood, can't the litter above drop down or in case water pours at the top can't it go through the litter and get to the bottom floor. Thanks for the information always looking forward for your videos.
No concrete. Would make it heavy for the poles. Also the water never pours. You want to avoid water pouring
Water will rot the timber.
Good afternoon bro you are so amazing thanks for the knowledge you are giving us who are planning to start the business
I wanted to know the price of each eucalyptus timber please
Kindly do the same about the fence the type of chain link used and the concrete Post
Your chicken house has two floors right? Are there chickens on the second floor or it's for storage?
Chickens look better than the ones in the old shack. MUCH better
Did you first dry the eucalyptus poles before using them or you just used them while fresh from the forest
Cage management with good calculations for a 25,000-ecot chicken capacity, is the multi-level cage a good enough cage design, good luck 🤝 9:42
I need to visit your farm if you allow....just let me know and where it is. Thanks
Another informative video.

How long was the construction process?
thank you for sharing
Doc can you help with the exact quantity for the materials like the wire etc
Daktari, hiw much has the structure cost you. In Kenya shillings
Obwedda mwana wekka?❤❤😂😂
Dr Dan if you were battery cages how birds can be kept on that house
Do you treat the wood above. ( the upper floor), floor.
Hey Doc, could you please assist me with feed formulation so I don't end up paying for more feedstuff?

Daniel you really challenge me, I love poultry to death but promise me that you will guide me once am starting . Greetings from USA
Hi Dr Daniel, I see you have total of 2 floors in one construction, now, is it that 1st floor can contain 2500 birds, and 2nd floor can also contain 2500 birds? Or it’s the first and second floor can contain a total of 2500 birds?
Thanks for the information. Very helpful
It's 2500 birds for both floors. He's keeping 8birds per square meter and the structure is 8 by 20 meters
Good work 👌👌👌
This is so important to me
wow, cement is so cheap there... unadjusted for local price :P
would easily cost $20k usd in canada for the foundation, with similar setup.
metal sheets would be $6k to $20k here, depending on how screwed over you get.
metal siding / roofing is very popular here tho.
labour would probably be like $200k here lol.
@@HotNoobVery true, same here in Australia 🌏🦘.
In Australia to build this type of building 🏢🏫 might cost about about $200.000 USD.

Everything in Australia 🌏🦘 is super expensive.
Thank you doc for that elaboration, and in my country Zambia thus looks a bit expensive due to timber is not much as cheap and available as in Uganda. So which one can be more expensive if you were to construct the same house using bricks?? Thank you.
You need to do the calculation using the Market price of bricks in your country to know for sure.
@@fk8395 thank you boss will try to do the calculation
haveu thought about mud house ?@@watsonngulube4659
It's better but in Zambia it might be more than that cause things and expensive. It can be affordable
Is this Math Correct
*Notes on Chicken Layers*
1 acre can accomodate about *5,000 layers*
*1 chicken* will lay between *4-5 eggs a week*
There are 52 weeks in a year
4 eggs per week = 208 eggs a year.
208 eggs a year multiply by 5,000 layers = *1,040,000 eggs a year*
A tray has 30 eggs
1,040,000 eggs = 34,600 trays per year or 94 trays per day
A tray of egg is about 10,300/= whole sale price.
So 34,600 trays of eggs = *356m per year on 1 acre or 30m per month.*
So, *1 acre can generate you gross sales of 30m.*
*Costs of raising 5000 layers on 1 acre is about 60%* of total sales which is ugx 18m
So profit is about about ugx 12m per acre.
If you have *4 acres*, you can make *profits* of *48m per month*
Let me know if this house for broiler or not
I would like to use your crew to build a chicken house. The price is reasonable.
Hello Dr, how do i treat Marek's Disease please
It has no treatment
What is the ceiling height for the lower section?
7 feet
Thank you very much@@FarmUp
Is it 2500 for each floor or 1250 for each, thanks
1250 each floor
😮hello doc
Kindly help me with the contact of yhe people who helped you to build the chicken house.
Thank you
Nice explanation but for someone who is starting poutry farming you need one year of sacrifice othwrwise you can not afford to construct a huge chicken house like this
Oh yes. Sacrifice indeed, and no need to start big
In Liberia it will be maybe 5 x more.

Please what’s wrong with the breeder farms, we don’t see you anymore there
Nothing wrong with them at all. Running so fine
Kindly share the layout
Materials are way cheaper where I live in america
Why can't I save the video?
Dr Daniel human being are also animals 🤣🤣🤣😅🙌
Hahaha
What is the height of that structure?
At least 14ft on the eves
Eeh! this is the cheapest construction labour cost I have ever seen in Uganda🤔
Why not let the doors open outwardly rather than in wardly.
Me personally though, I will make the foot bath wider by at least one more foot all around so that lazy workers or helpers don't just step on the edge and go directly into the farm without dipping into the disinfectant.
True. That was an oversight that will be corrected on the next one
