Aim to increase the herd slightly to start pocketing some decent cash since some costs are fixed. Main Challenge is fodder, still trying to formulate ways to push down fodder costs since it's the main cost.
Also doing some kienyeji chicken on the side. Started as a side hustle but they are multiplying so fast it might become a main business. Started with less than 10 hens, I've almost 50 chicken now and some more being hatched soon God willing.
In other news, please advise how to change subject from sheep farming since this has since changed
Theking,
What became of this sheep farming venture jameni.
Very interesting stuff!
But I hear if you do not castrate the sheep early the meat will have a bad smell and nobody will buy..is this true?
In the final analysis, it all boils down to sheer plain old hard work and dogged persistence. Nothing more, nothing less!!
