Poultry as we all know is a very risky business. This is caused by the easy spread of diseases in farm houses. We have heard stories of how birds die in quantums and the business owner loses everything.

So how can one reduce the risk of losses in poultry business?

I think the poultry business owners must organise and concentrate more on the vaccination of their birds against the most common deadily diseases that ca cause massive death for the birds.

Whenever someone start this business he must keep in his mind that anytime he may face the most disaster able condition so he must get proper knowledge about it he should see the market trend and then make his move accordingly.

This is just the key to make it in poultry business. You don't have to cut cornerz with timely vaccinations. And you have to feed the birds well too.

The key to success in poultry is biosecurity. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't allow people to enter my farm. If you must, you must not go in with your shoes.

One of the advice that I always give to people who are interested in starting a poultry farm is for them not to start too big because it's going to be very difficult for them to manage it successfully.

So like what quantity do you recommend a person to start with? Is 100 day old chicks of broilers adequate for someone to start with?

Maintaining proper hygiene and biosecurity measures like vaccination and regular testing can also reduce the risk of disease outbreaks also developing contingency plans for emergencies and having insurance coverage can also help manage risks.

You must try as much as possible to study different vaccinations for the poultry products. If you vaccinate them well you will eliminate risks.

That's how one of my friends told me vaccination of his birds is waste of money. He actually got away with it for a long time. The time it hit him, he lost 5000 birds in three days.

I am with you that the business owner needs to consider. Having vaccinations can prevent certain diseases or illnesses, such as bird's flu. I have a cousin and claimed that it is not easy to have a poultry farm.

This is very important and they should look for ways to take care of those chickens so that they will not die

that is actually a huge loss in my perspective. I think people should not be ignorant when it comes to doing risky busineses like this.

Your chickens need regular vaccinations. You should be very careful while entering your coop, and you also need to insure your poultry. That's how you reduce the risk associated this this business

I think some people who handled those chickens do not have an idea of how to vaccinate them

It depends on the level of knowledge that you have in poultry farming business. If it's something that is good enough, I believe that you can start with 100 but if it's not, you should start with 50.

And it is good to make research before engaging in any business instead of just doing it in your own way that you know
