Anticipate your responses pls. ThanksMy 100 broiler chickens are six weeks old ,what is the idea quantity of feed they are to consume daily?
By 9-10 weeksI would think after 6 weeks you'd have a pretty good idea how much they consume daily.
When will you slaughter?
Initially I was feeding them 2.5 bags weekly then about 3 bags till 5 weeks,at 6th week I was advised to feed them one bag in 2 days meaning 12.5 kg daily(1 bag= 25kg). But it still seems as though the half bag a day is to small for them as I divide the 12.5 kg into 3 for morning ,afternoon and evening and feed them. They longed for more after each meal.I would think after 6 weeks you'd have a pretty good idea how much they consume daily.
When will you slaughter?
Thanks a bunchI have read to feed the amount that they will eat in 30 minutes, 2x per day. I did that for the last 3 weeks, except I sprinkled a little food in their litter to keep them busy looking for food and my broilers turned out just about perfect.
