How to Build a Chicken Farm on a SMALL PLOT of Land

If you're new to my channel, my name is Daniel Masaba. I am a retired medical doctor, the Founder and Director of Farm Up. It's a farming enterprise that did over $1,500,000 in revenue last year and is on course to beat that this year. We mainly focus on poultry farming, that's breeding day old chicks for supply to farmers, and production of table eggs on a large scale. But, how did I get here?

2016: Graduated as a doctor at 24.
2019: Started my first poultry farm with 800 chickens on borrowed land.
2021: Co-founded a breeder farm with a partner on 400 acres of land
2021: Resigned from my job as a doctor to focuss on my businesses
2022: Passed $1,000,000 in annual revenue from the poultry business
2024: Started the Farm Up Academy to help othe poultry farmers start and scale their farms.

Bamboo grows quickly and makes excellent scaffolding. Yorktown Virginia used it to build the brick building 🏫 that we see today and many still have Cannon balls stuck in the 🧱 bricks after it rained down on the town for a long time. Many of the Cannon balls are left in place and concreted around. Work carries on rain 🌧️☔ and shine there is always something to do. The sounds tells you they are making healthy meat. . . The interesting thing about bamboo is that it is very resistant to bacterial, fungus, vural and insect growth. . . When dried bamboo is very light. . . Bamboo chicken cages for transporting live healthy chickens.

Yes. Good content. Be careful when planning livestock near neighbors. They may not appreciate all the noise, dust, vermin and flies. Thank you. Stay safe.

Hi Doc Dan, I've followed you for a while now and I must confess that I love what you do and how you do it. Please I'll like to ask if I can put a rabbit house close to my chicken house where I raise broilers. Thank you

[mohamedwarfa]

Can you talk more about the broiler farm as well as the farm up chicks as most of your videos is on the layer farm. I am not sure why there is not much discussion in that farm.

Bamboo its hollow inside similar to chicken bones 🩻. Lighter than spun carbon fiber and safer to work with.

Dr Daniel, i have been wondering if it is safe bio security wise and ventilation wise to have a 2 story structure with the top housing brooding chicks and the bottom part for battery cage system. I will appreciate your reply. Thank u

How many birds can accommodate such a house?!

[Nyssapearl]

Saying everything except answering the question
2 minutes into the video and still nothing about "The size of the land"
Which was the main question and Title of the video..
5 minutes and he still hasnt said anything about the size requirement!!

Ke keeps repeating the same shit and mentioning unnecessary things

I don't care about the extra land you just acquired and the sugarcane!!

Past 7 minutes and he says "the size of land doesn't matter, just depends on choice and system you choose" 7:14

What was the point of the ramblings
