Broilers vs Layers Chicken

Differences between Egg laying chickens (Layers) and Meat producing chickens (Broilers) 1. Layers lay eggs often than broilers 2. Broilers gain more weight than layers 3. Broiler feeding is more costly than layers as more energy and protein is required for broilers to quickly gain weight than it is required by layers. The more the amount of protein content in poultry feed, the costly the feed can get. 4. Layers tend to develop disease commonly compared to broilers because they are reared for longer periods of time. Broilers are reared for few weeks and they are sold out which shows they may not stay long to be exposed to some diseases of chickens. 5. It is easier to start a broiler poultry farm than a layer farm because the initial cost of starting a broiler farm is cheaper and the expertise or skills needed are minimal compared to layers that are more complex and costly initially. 6. You can start earning within few weeks for broilers but you must wait for a minimum of about 5 months for layer chickens to start laying eggs, i.e. if you start brooding the chicks yourself; except if you are going to buy point of lay chickens, which would be additional cost. 7. If you ever run at a loss, it will be less in broilers than in layers because you can easily start all over again in broilers; whereas in layers, it may take a whole year for you to recover from a loss. 8. You can make profit from a few hundred broilers but you have to start with large number of layers for you to really make profit #chicken #broiler #layer FACEBOOK : URBAN FARM NG INSTAGRAM: URBAN FARM NG
