[Music] you [Music] when a head reaches six months of age a farmer knows it is just a matter of time before it's hatching season if the hand is one that loves to go broody and sit on the eggs for the required number of days 21 days she's truly one of the best she will keep the eggs warm even clucking her breast feathers so the eggs can touch her warm skin she will also turn them around a couple of times every day and defend her nest with a mother's devotion the mortality rate however can be truly disappointing to a poultry farmer a significant percentage of eggs may not hack there by sabotaging the potential profits for the farmer but what if there was a way that could insure that farmers get at least 97 percent rate of hatching we travel two kilos in Kissimmee County to find out how farmers in Casull are increasing the percentage of hatching in their shakes Newton Florida is an agribusiness entrepreneur who specialized in the art of hatching and breeding eggs and chicks the source of inspiration for Newton came through his dear old friend who's raring chicks in on cotton guy my initial inspiration well I was motivated by a colleague a former classmate in high school with a telecommunication engineer when he told me that his a poultry farmer and his specialties area but what shocked me is when he told me he sells is poultry mises or in his neighborhood and he pays whereas low disease poultry seventy fillings two strategies it's chickens are surprised if someone can pay seventy six to just slaughter and breast chicken then I got mutant is a trained in laboratory biochemist which means that the land of lab research was a close friend after being in this occupation for over a decade Newton decided to quit the stint to get into the lucrative hatching business at some point I lost that motivation to continue being employed and therefore I decided to resign my job and focus on this enterprise full-time because now the market was growing so the job was competing with the business so I had to decide at some point or do I want to do I cannot serve both so I had to choose one the start of the business came immediately after I decided to quit he got his capital from his savings and Friends and decided it was either go big or go home bhai cherries we now been here for about five years we have moved from strength to strength we started initially as are very small and less startup but over the years we have grown have expanded our market in the region now we are serving the entire western Kenya region my capital was from savings as well as a friend I talked to a friend I sold the idea to him my good friend here is some money go get started being from a research base background Newton's first instinct was to gather as much information and data as he could possibly get on the Hajin business he knew that this would enable him to start up the business in the right manner one thing that I consider most is the knowledge you need to equip yourself with that enough up-to-date knowledge about - how to handle the various challenges that come the other thing I considered very mighty the marketing aspect so those are three mega issues and redeposited then initially when you got started we had a lot of challenges with the boutique we have learned over time the structure behind Newton and the Buddha inside is where the chicks live the chick structure was built by Newton and his brother for the chicks that have just hatched one two three days each of these cages can hold up to a hundred Burmese the brooder is what Newton bought it is similar to a cabinet and has been lined with insulating material and equipped with trays to hold and turn banks as you can see behind me is this Buddha you conceded to the historical Ducks it's adapted today upon family setting because we have space issues are here so we had to come up with a structure that you know it makes the best use of the available space that's why we had to come up with it so it has served us all along so we have to prove these structures that can accommodate 200 L chicks we have about four six another six the other side so klonda times twelve that is probably well over 2400 sheets at a time there are four basic requirements that any egg needs to hatch this includes temperature humidity egg turning and air flow the temperature should be between 99 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit humidity should be between 50 and 60 percent training should be at least two times daily and there should be an air and gas exchange once the chicks are hatched there should be enough light water in feeds one major consideration when we do this structure is the ventilation as you can see we decided to this chicken wire and to consider structure is well regulated because one major challenge when you're doing coding is the issue of coccidiosis and the coccidiosis is brought about by ammonia Buda so the structure ought to be well ventilated to allow prevent that build-up of ammonia we had to use the infrared bugs for warming the the chambers you can see an upper set the distaste may do them in is a brooding port but it will be cumbersome because I have several chambers or time so we are using this infrared box remember the power cost is our challenge but they are more efficient in this case ventilation as Newton as mentioned is crucial if the chick fills too hot it will isolate itself to the farthest corner of the cage and this may cause its death of the chick feels too cold on the other hand it will not be able to feather out and may possibly die it is always good to remember that the first seven days of a chicks life a very crucial you can see the seasons right now it's a bit cold in kisumu because of the rain but their seasons when it's very hot and that's why the relation is P so there are times we have to remove these Swedish boonie area no I to increase the amount of ventilation there are times we have to bring it back to ensure there's more warmth in the chamber even the excess cold can cause problems yes then you bring crowding under the lamp so we have to keep on balancing temperatures inside farmers across the country code here at Newton's hatchery to get the eggs hatched by one of the best in the business getting quality takes time then give high quality chicks so you have to work very closely with Thomas that you know their processes their practices and their funds so that they can give you a reliable supply of quality eggs so that's a major thing because you can't just buy eggs from whoever the best the best case scenario would be to keep your own chicken we have young breed a stock but at times that is not feasible I believe in focusing on one thing at a time and also watching partnering with other people yeah so you identify a good supply of fertile eggs you partner with them well they focus on producing quality eggs the first time that Newton attempted to hatch eggs when he was starting in the business he failed terribly however he bounced back and to say that the road to success is paved by failure my first experience when hiking was was it was very interesting because I think I went to Nairobi by that I was still employed when I went to downtown nairobi i shopped for my first into beta i put it in a courier you back to kizamu when whoever sold me the initial eggs didn't have my own eggs by well I think so the bad eggs so I think you baited a machine full of about 500 eggs a Mann heisst sorry to throw away about 500 days that was a very very bad experience but due to my resilience I'd not give up so I can try it again over the years I've seen a great improvement in the heightened levels of our attacks that's why we're not today now more people and trust us to do the hygiene [Music]
