Let’s farm smart and care for our birds!

Stocking density in Broiler parent stock:
▪︎The recommended stocking density is 5 birds/M².

▪︎This is to provide enough space for mating and feeding.

[RADVAN🐓🥚🐥 @Radvan_Vedasto]

Mortality rates in broilers:

▪︎The normal mortality rates in broilers are 1-5% depending on the time at which you sell broilers.

▪︎Your chicks supplier will always give you extra chick to cover 2% mortality.

▪︎Do your chicks supplier provide you with extra chicks??
