My Ghanaian Dream Challenge

Collecting thousands of feathers from a poultry farm is a daunting task. When biosecurity threats loom, what's the best disposal method? Discover the tough choices one farmer made, balancing potential risks with limited resources and dashed hopes for beautiful products.

I invested over 160,000 Ghana cedis into my poultry farm. My consultant guided me every step of the way, from location and construction to feeding and vaccinations. Now, it's time to show my appreciation. How much do you think is appropriate to pay for such invaluable guidance?

After months of hustle and investment, the first payment of 150 Ghana cedis has arrived from selling 3 crates of eggs! It's a small start, but a crucial step in recouping costs and moving forward.

Waking at 3 AM to cover the chicken coop from heavy rains is a farmer's reality. It makes you question if anyone would do this for just a salary. It also highlights the need for better farm construction.

Livestock farmers face daily hurdles. Today, we tackle the third Newcastle vaccination with a tricky syringe, losing a bird to stampede, but celebrating 23 eggs! The journey continues.

Big news from the farm! My white birds have finally started laying, delivering 2 eggs on their first day! Plus, I'm unboxing and demonstrating a new continuous syringe for vaccinating my 1000 chicks against Newcastle disease. This tool is a game-changer!

Seventeen weeks and 1,008 birds later, we hit a record 17 eggs today! It's 1.7% of our flock, but still short of the 5% needed to switch feed. Plus, a client needs 4 crates by Friday, and we're not sure we'll make it. We also discuss a staggering 50,000 Ghana cedis spent on feed and supplies, and need help finding affordable egg crates locally.

After a long week, the first crate of eggs is finally here! We've had a slow start, but we're celebrating this milestone. Plus, exciting news – a buyer has been found for these eggs and has requested more!

Discovering eggs buried in rice husks and unusually soft, flexible eggs on the farm. Plus, a shocking jump in egg production after finding a 'golden egg'. What could it all mean?

After weeks of tiny eggs, I've finally harvested one weighing 54 grams – ready for market! It's a huge milestone, though today also brought the smallest egg yet. Learning every step of this Ghanaian Dream.

Found a golden egg after 15 weeks and 5 days, but now it's been over 48 hours with no follow-up. Worried about potential issues with brooding, feeding, or breeds. What could be wrong?
