If you can do it, selling day old poults can be profitable. Once you start feeding them, every day you have them increases your cost.

Haven't done as well the last 2 years selling day old's not sure if its because of covid or what just haven't had the demand last 2 years. But I also retired 2 years ago and worked at jeep plant with many people so word of mouth is probably more the problem. Going to put fliers up in feed stores in January this year. Already have gotten okay from all of them along with all the locale TSC,s

I don't do so great on turkey poults but guinea keets are a different matter. My first batch of keets this year never made it out of the incubator. The buyer took them directly from the incubator. The second batch were in the brooder for one day. Neither batch was advertised. I did not have sufficient keets to fill all of the requests.

 

[Huntmaster]

Have never raised guinea.

Thats a good problem to have.

I was just cleaning out one of my hurt turkeys bathtubs and seen a few red worms in the bedding. Do you know what type of worm it is??
