6 weeks for broiler birds? I actually thought it takes up to 4 months before they're fully ready.

Everything over 10 weeks is not feed-efficient anymore.

That's quite surprising, I use to think one needs to spend close to two months, it's one of the the things that discouraged me though Once investing on poultry back in the days. Whewww!

No oooooooo.
I start selling my broiler birds once they clock 6 weeks and before they reach 8 weeks atmost my stock is already empty. On to the batch next again. They also have life span and moreso, it's from 6 weeks to 8 weeks that you can get accurate calculated weight(Everything over 10 weeks is not feed-efficient anymore). Anything other than those periods, they will just be eating your feed and they won't add much weight. So, its doesn't pay for commercial business purpose.

Thanks for stopping by Comrade!🥂

Thanks for that accessment there, that's quite some timing. 6 to 8 weeks is equivalent to almost 2 months. So you sellout even before you hit the 9th week?

Yes
Even attimes, if my marketing goes well, sometimes before 7 weeks they will be gone. Rearing Broiler chicken to 10 weeks is a waste of time without necessary added gain.
