Hello all!
I'm writing from Lusaka, Zambia where I am doing some work for 3 weeks at a center that educates women and teaches them to sue. One of the projects I'm working on is a building a chicken coop and teaching the caretaker the basics of raising chickens, which I am very excited about.
So I thought I'd post what I was doing and open the floor for any advice, particularly if anyone has had any experience in raising chickens in an African context.
I'm very confident is raising chickens in the states, but curious if there are any added cautions in raising chickens in Zambia that anyone might know about?
Thanks in advance! Also, I do not have access to the internet often. So forgive me if my replies are delayed.
Below are the pictures of the room the chickens will be living. I know some will be worried about the heat, but that won't be an issue.
