After 21 days since we started our brooding qualification in Brgy. Lamak Dumanjug, Cebu, we are so glad to know that the result was indeed successful. Our chickens at Day 20 were having a median weight of 371 grams with 0% mortality.
Prior to ranging, we prepared the ranging area to be ready for our ranging stage qualification . We used indigenous materials such as bamboo and coco lumber to save on building cost and of course we choosed the best field where there are plenty of grasses and grains.
The aim of this qualification is to determine if indeed we can successfully range our chickens without any major problems being encountered. This is an important aspect to be considered in order to assess if the area is feasible for large scale production.
As of the moment, our meat-type free-range chickens are already at Day 46 and they are on range, still with 0% mortality. This result only proves the quality of our farming methodologies, the good source of DOC as well as the good condition of our farming land.
Below is the historical growth performance of our chicken:
Right before ranging, the chickens are weighed. In the photo, the chicken is already weighing 324 grams at 19 days.
