Hi Daniel good day. I'd like to acquire your fertile eggs to be delivered to Philippines. How much it would cost for the minimum orders including shipping? Thank you.
"Thou shalt not judge" and "Follow your conscience" but "I'll never, never keep my birds in cages". Speaks a lot about you Dr.Daniel. The biggest challenge is when we become commercially successful or face crisis we forget our farming principles. On the other hand your objectives outweight your wealthiness. Your passion is a great inspiration especially to those farmers in Africa and developing Nations. It not just important to have commercial success but we need to keep in mind the life of farm animals and their right to a good life in their life time. I would still stress barnyard poultry are a way more safe and happier than unhappy caged birds.
It is never about age, 30 sano ayaan jiraa hawshaanna waan ku jiraa, 800 layers ayaan marsiinayanaa hadda. Do it now sister, you look nothing more than a teenager.
Nice Video Daniel . You give a fairly balanced argument for deep litter vs cages (although you are clearly biased against the battery cage system) .I agree with your assessment-Cages are more commercially viable -less labor required for maintenance,less space,easier disease control and egg collection (lower risk of damage and vices )and cleaning.I think the manure from cages is better because it’s pure and not mixed as is the case with deep litter . deep litter manure depends on what material was used initially (coffee husks/wood shavings ) and how long it spends in the chicken house as well as effects of water spillage which make it harden .It can be quite exothermic when applied directly to plants causing wilting . Having tried out both free range and deep litter ,I understand the moral dilemma with cage system . But I believe as a farmer you have to set out clear goals and follow through. Chicken should be free to roam around but we still keep them in enclosures so as to manage their production more effectively. Battery cage system takes this to an extreme many are uncomfortable with .
Thank you so much for the videos, they are so educational. I would also like to go into poultry farming. I think deep litter is the best but due to my limited space i have to go for cages
Thank you my brother, you really are a good teacher. All these information came handy and useful. We are in the planning phase of starting this business
Daniel ..l for not know you ..but with your ambition .& Desire ..education being key ..you will reach the sky..from med doctor ..to an inspirational poultry farmer ..eii lm happy for you ..ho high 👍🙏
You have a perfect chicken system bro..some people call it holistic approach..with hen and roaster together in cage you have definitely better produce eggs more natural with perfect nutrients for consumption..Kodus Bro happy farming.
Iam out, i will never think of battery cage system again. The reason why i wanted it was because of easy management since i wont be at the farm 24/7, secondly the labour is way cheaper and lastly, eggs dont easily break as they just roll and boom ready for collection and also easy to clean etc...... Okay after your detailed explanation, i will never use battery system. Oh i love chicken breast but not bruised with with cages...
@@AMANFIFARMSthis people are just being emotional. When it comes to business, I believe one should use what is profitable otherwise even for cows which is more profitable in zero grazing we will be told to go back to traditional cows whose production is so low. This is business, they should stop with their nonsense sentiments n emotions.🙄🙄
I am for deep litter system. Watching birds in the cages always leave me feeling sad being that it's a maximum prison for a harmless creature. As usual, you did an excellent job in this video 👍
Thanks brother leaned alot i love chickens in the near future i will be able to have big chickens farm . I want to get more lesson from u pls keep it up.
Am quite amaze by you n your job ,concerning the poultry farm, you r such a nice guy really helpful. Thanks a lot.... One thing has cross my mind n that oblige me to ask a simple question to you, please can you make a video that shows how the chicken lays there eggs, n how you pick them all,,, plz don't mind thanks in advance, take care
If you are speaking from the economic perspective, then it is better to use battery cages to raise layer but from a moral standpoint, I agree that the deep-litter system is best. Great video.
Nice videos...I have been watching your channel ever since i had the desire to start poultry farming.. i have just secured my land in Ghana for the layer poultry farm even though I live in the UK. I need more information bro.
@@FarmUpplease I have few questions. 1. what are th stages you need to vaccinate these layer chicks. 2. Do you vaccinate your chickens yourself or you use a vert. 3. What sort of vaccines do you give them and how do you get them.
Thanks for the video. I appreciate. This is mt next venture, in October. And i have learned a great deal from your videos. I would like tk know how much i need ti start up, for everything. And i only have a 100 by 50 plot of land. How many birds can i do on it. Lastly do i beed to fence up the land for security purposes? Won't it hurt the birds? Thanks alot..
Thx alot for the information. I want to start layers and i have a small space. I will go for the cages. Can i put 2 weeks old layers there or should i buy a little bit older ones?
I'm a newbee in poultry farming after watching your lessons I have been inspired but at the same time, I feel like I have made a wrong choice to start with layers. 😨😂
I love poultry farm so much but I couldn't continue with the business. The little potion been given to me was collected by the owner of the house. I started last year wit 150 broiler, but people make things difficult for me this time. No business like poultry farming.
I have a free range/deep litter chicken farm and If you automate a lot of the feed and water requirements, it makes it easy for you to manage. Animals know how to take care of themselves if the resources are there for them. I spend about 30mins per day with a flock of 5000 broilers . Cages are convenient but also more startup costs and just cruel. You won’t have good production .

Who Else Wished They Did Poultry Farming While They Were Teens

It's never too late. Make it happen.
Never too late... started mine with 1500 layers in 2019 and now at 2500 at age 40...by 50 I will be at 100,000birds
I wish that too
I am doing it right now.
Please make a video and show us how to clean the deep litter system poultry house effective.
I really want to know this because for more birds like 500 or more is stressful, do you move the birds out or how....
@@flotastyfood for more effective management, put as little as 100 birds in one space. Things will be very easy that way
This guy's brain is running so fast that I don't think his mouth can keep up with it. Love him. I wonder if his patients can keep up ?
Wode Maya aka Ghanaian baby brought me here, big up for your inspirational series

So happy to see that you don't use cages. Chickens feel pain as well.Thanks for raising them humanely.
I laughed when you said that your chickens love you too. When you said that, the hen that you were holding, took a look at you and flew away. 🐔🐔🐔😁😁😁
Hahaha. Well, i give it it's freedom
Hahaha. Well, i give it it's freedom
They both complement each other effort. There is no friendship in poultry, you feed them they layer eggs for you.lt is purely besiness.
funny to see how much grow this channel now (2025). Congratulations Daniel. I'm following

Hi Daniel, I'm planning to raise 500 chicks on my poultry farm. Thank you for your tips.

Battery cages which is what I use at my farm will save you a ton of money, and lots headache over time... especially disease control

Indeed I would like to visit ur Farm
I am for deep litter system. Watching birds in the cages always leave me feeling sad being that it's a maximum prison for a harmless creature.
As usual, you did an excellent job in this video 👍
Thank you
I think the same it not good for the animal
Not good for animal and not good for humans either. Cage free organic is best way to go
Thanks Dr am from south Africa I learn more from this school
I love the way you explain, am watching you from Morocco
Thank you
Thanks for this. Was just thinking of which to go with.
I will like to use both systems. I like them all
Thanks brother leaned alot i love chickens in the near future i will be able to have big chickens farm . I want to get more lesson from u pls keep it up.
Love the channel. Watching all the way from the South Pacific (Solomon Islands)

Good day Dr. Daniel. Thanks for the informative video. How many labourers would you recommend for a deep litter system? Is there a ratio I can apply?
I hv been watching ur videos Nd um rilly inspired I believe I can do it too .... right now um still saving money um sure by January I ll start
Awesome
Thanks for the information, when constructing the deep litter building what is the best way to do so in order to control water spillage
Dr. Daniel, please how do you eradicate the stench adopting either the deep litter system or battery cage?
I will love to see how the grow everyday
Great job Daniyal . . . .
