Alright

great to have you joining the BYC flock

BYC has a very useful learning center

Wet feed makes you feed dollar go much further as the wind wont blow it away and the spillage and waste is cut way down ....

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

I am not familiar with keeping large amounts of broilers in poultry houses. But you might ask this question in our Coop and Run Construction section for more help with this...

Good luck with this project and I hope someone can help you there!

wet food left around can get moldy fast and that can kill chickens.

Sorry like the others, I have no idea what works with such a large population of birds. Probably something only other commercials would know but, maybe not share.

Welcome to BYC! These are some heavy duty questions you are asking that are of importance to the commercial egg laying business.
