Please advise:
Am Planning to start incubating and egg business, Would like to hear from anyone who has tried this or is in the business, and what you would advise before I source for an incubator from china.
Also would like to know if its a profitable business.


@suekim, I am not familiar with this on the ground but i would imagine if you could approach women groups ,this could provide a healthy source for your day old chicks.They are getting all these funds to start businesses.

I would also think that if you checked outlying areas such as Kitengela, Rongai, Ruai etc, a lot of people are setting up small biashara's rasing kukus.

On another note, can someone explain how you can sell one month old Kienyeji fresh chicken for sh 300..would appreciate, thanks. I think that is what they are called but i could be wrong.
It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.

With many farmers selling off their birds and closing shop due to the high feed costs and low egg prices being offered there is going to be a shortage of eggs and chicken to eat. Then the prices will go up. IMHO a tray should be sold for at least 280.
