Poultry farming is one of the quickest ways to earn consistent daily income in agriculture. A healthy layer hen can produce 280–320 eggs per year — and with the right strategy, each egg can be part of a thriving business.
5 Keys to Turning Eggs into Profit:
1️⃣ Pick the Right Breed
Choose high-yield, hardy breeds like ISA Brown, Lohmann Brown, or Hy-Line Brown for maximum production and resilience.
2️⃣ Feed for Peak Performance
Layers need 16–18% protein plus extra calcium for strong shells. Boost calcium with crushed oyster shells or limestone supplements.
3️⃣ Keep Coops Clean & Comfortable
Overcrowded, dirty housing = stress, disease, and fewer eggs. Maintain good ventilation, space, and hygiene.
4️⃣ Prioritise Poultry Health
Vaccinate against Newcastle, Gumboro, and other common diseases. Deworm regularly and check for parasites.
5️⃣ Add Value & Sell Smart
Don’t only sell raw eggs — try boiled eggs, branded trays, or niche markets like free-range and organic to boost earnings by 30–50%.
✅ Remember: Success in poultry is about volume, quality, and smart marketing. Done right, every tray you sell puts more gold in your pocket!
