Where to start Chicken Road?
Choose the right breed according to the climate.

Monitor the health of the chickens daily.
Chicken nutrition should include grains, proteins, vitamins and clean water. It is especially important to adapt the diet to the age and type of chickens - whether they are layers or broilers.
Excess salt or lack of calcium can seriously affect egg quality and growth. That is why proper nutrition is the basis for a long and productive life of a bird.

Broiler vs Layer Road: Which type of chicken to choose for your farm in India?
In India, farmers usually work with two main types of chickens: broilers for fast meat production, and layers for stable egg production. Broilers gain weight quickly, but require a high-protein diet, special temperature conditions and weight control. Layers, on the other hand, live longer, have more active behavior and require increased calcium to produce quality eggs. The choice between the two depends on your farm’s goals, market and available resources. The right approach to each type of chicken is the first step towards effective farming on Chicken Road.
Diseases and Prevention
Chicken health starts with cleanliness and vaccination. Threats such as Newcastle disease, coccidiosis or parasites should not be underestimated. Regular disinfection of the chicken coop, fresh air and isolation of sick individuals are not just recommendations, but necessary measures to protect the entire livestock. If you notice a change in behavior or a decrease in appetite, act immediately. Chicken Road is a path where prevention is always cheaper than cure.
