Poultry

Ugachick Poultry Breeders Limited revamps poultry industry in Uganda through production of day-old chicks, high quality animal feeds and other poultry products

Existing chicken incubators, especially low cost and older models, use the same egg tray through the 18 day Setting Phase, as well as through the final three days hatching phase; while this does help keep production costs down, it does have a definite ongoing price

An important part of raising chickens is feeding - feeding makes up the major cost of production and good nutrition is reflected in the birds performance and its products

There has been a recent approach to feed technology and animal nutrition to develop sugar syrup, an intermediary product of sugar refining, to develop as energy feed for poultry
