Over the past few years, I’ve been passionate about hydroponics and soilless farming, but now I’m excited to dive into a new chapter: poultry farming! I’ll be sharing my journey, tips, Educational contents and insights as I explore this field. Stay tuned!

Prove there's a demand before you commit all your resources. Anyways, that's all for today! See you again this weekend! #penmanfarmer #evrifarm #entrepreneurmindset

If I invest everything into that idea without testing, I might end up barely selling one—and that single sale might not even cover feed for the rest of the flock. That doesn't make sense. So, validate your idea with a small, manageable test.

I can't just decide to raise ostriches for Christmas because I feel people will see them as giant meaty-chickens and that "big men" would buy them.

Stop assuming and start asking. What problem keeps them up at night? Your product must be the solution. 2. Test Before You Expand. Never bet the farm on a hunch.

This question forces you to find your true value. How do you find that value? Two key steps: 1. Listen to Your Market — Don't Guess. We don't need your opinion; we need your customers' one.

Your success doesn't hinge on what you think people should want, but on serving what they genuinely need. Here’s a simple but powerful way to frame it: Ask yourself: "Are my customers better off without my product? If the answer is 'yes,' then why should they ever buy from me?"

That first "support-purchase" is often the last. They will quickly grow tired of buying something that doesn't solve a real, pressing problem for them. Forget the recurring purchase from them!

By the way, if you find this helpful you can pass across this post to others or engage it for more people to find it on their feeds. They'd be glad if you do that. Yours #PenmanFarmer #EvriFarm #PoultryFarming #AnimalHusbandry #DeepLitterSystem #PoultryHealth #FarmManagement

In essence, a sufficient litter volume ensures the waste is diluted and managed by the bedding itself, creating a healthier environment for the birds and a more efficient system for you.

This not only curbs the spread of disease but also drastically cuts down on labor, as the litter manages moisture and ammonia more effectively.

Adequate litter depth acts as an effective bio-filter. The droppings are turned over and absorbed into the deep bedding, significantly reducing the birds' contact with waste.

· For Broilers/other Growing Birds: Aim for a depth of approximately 10 cm (about 4 inches). · For Layers (laying stage) on a Deep Litter System: A deeper layer of about 15 cm (about 6 inches) is recommended. Why does this simple adjustment work so well?

When the litter is insufficient, birds can easily pick at their own droppings. This is a primary cause of disease outbreaks, especially coccidiosis, which can devastate your stock. So, what is the ideal thickness?

𝘿𝙤 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙐𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙇𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝘿𝙚𝙥𝙩𝙝 Many poultry farmers make a common but costly mistake: using a layer of litter that is too thin. This oversight leads to increased labor and, more importantly, serious health risks for the flock.
