Let’s say you have 70 layers from which you collect 60 eggs a day. Instead of selling each egg for KSh 12 (or KSh 360 per tray) to wholesalers, you decide to boil the eggs and resell them for KSh 900 per tray (or KSh 30 each).

Njoki earns a net profit of KSh 20 per egg when selling them as boiled eggs, while other farmers earn only KSh 2 per egg when selling to wholesalers.

Her 70 layers earn her 20x60=ksh.1200 a day or ksh.36000 a month while the same number of birds earn other farmers 2x60=ksh.120 a day or 120x30=3600 a month

This farmer has been free-ranging her Kenbro birds since they were one week old. The birds you see in the photo are now one month old.

She feeds them Fugo feeds. Free-ranging helps her reduce feeding costs, allows the birds plenty of time to bask in the sun, and also aids in aerating her chicken coop.

Did you know that fridges usually make the best incubators?
Thanks to their superb insulation… fridge incubators can withstand a 3 days blackout

This 26-year-old lady gave up city life, returned to the village, and became a full-time farmer.

She regrets having stayed in Nairobi for so long, hopping from one office job to another in search of job positions that paid peanuts compared to what she earns now.

A farmer shared a video of his homemade incubator hatching 🐣 😊. The easiest way to do value addition on eggs is to incubate them and sell chicks.
Instead of selling a tray of eggs at ksh.600. You can sell it for 30x100=3,000

If you’d like to kick-start your pure kienyeji journey and start seeing results right away, buying ready-to-lay hens and cockerels is the easiest way possible. You can actually recover your starting capital in less than a month.
Suppose you buy 10 hens, each for KSh 900:
900 × 10 = 9,000
2 cockerels, each for 1,200:
2 × 1,200 = 2,400
Total capital required = 2,400 + 9,000 = 11,400
Suppose you collect 7 eggs per day from your flock. In a week’s time, that will add up to 50 eggs.
Incubate 50 eggs every week. After three weeks, you’ll be having at least 40 chicks on a weekly basis.
Sell each for KSh 100:
40 × 100 = 4,000
In a month’s time, that will add up to 4,000 × 4 = 16,000
You will have recouped the 11,400 you started with and be left with some money to buy feeds and a small profit. The following month, approximate profit will be more than 13k every month.
You can get such hens and c***s priced between 900–1,200 from 0723 951875—he can deliver to Nairobi.
