Artib Farm

Every serious poultry farmer has three silent workers that never rest: the thermometer, the drinkers, and the feeders. Let’s start with the thermometer. It’s not just a fancy gadget — it’s your early warning system. Temperature swings stress your birds, slow growth, and cut production. A few degrees off can cost thousands in feed or lost eggs. Smart farmers don’t guess; they measure. Next are the drinkers. Clean water equals healthy birds. Simple. A good drinker keeps water fresh, prevents spills, and saves you from constant cleaning. Dirty or spilled water is the fastest road to disease, so your drinkers are basically your first line of defense. Finally, the feeders. They decide how efficiently your birds grow. The right feeder stops waste, keeps feed dry, and makes sure every bird eats enough. Feed is your biggest expense — protecting it protects your profit. These three tools might look ordinary, but together, they run your farm quietly in the background. Control your environment. C...

You don’t raise broilers like a pro by accident. You get there by planning each batch with the same precision a builder uses on a construction site. The birds don’t reward vibes, they reward systems. Here’s how to lock yours in. Start with batch scheduling. Most farmers wing it, then wonder why they’re always short on space, cash, or sanity. A proper schedule tells you when chicks arrive, when they leave, and how much time you have to clean, disinfect, and reset the house. That gap between batches matters. Too short, and you carry disease into the next flock. Too long, and you waste productive days. Map your calendar backwards from your target sales date. You’ll know exactly when to stock, when to thin, and when to cash out. Next is supplier coordination. Broiler farming falls apart when feed, chicks, vaccines, or litter materials arrive late. A single delay can sabotage your entire timeline. Keep your suppliers on a predictable cycle. Confirm chick delivery at least a week ahead. Bo...
