It’s been one week since we welcomed Fyah Mummah to the farm courtesy of Martha who is also doing well. What has her one week been like at the farm?
1. She was fed on 4L of colostrum day one and safely placed in a calf pen.
2. On Day 3 she was introduced to calf pellets, water, supaphos and some hay to nibble on starting her diet plan
3. On Day 3 we applied Remoov from Atlantis life science on operation angamiza pembe.

Martha had started showing signs of refusing to feed on dairy meal so she was put on ketonex and so far mother and child are well

Calf rearing starts at birth and things often don’t go wrong, they start wrong

Huyu Sasa ako on Supaphos until the day she exits the farm. No other mineral in the course of her time with us. That’s how convenient and incredibly easy supaphos is even to the farmer

If you are looking to Invest in sheep farming,chose a good ram above everything else.
A better ram will be the best use of your money because he is half of the genetics of the all the lambs to be born in your farm. There is a saying that goes "A ram is half the flock"

Like it or not the ewe is only half of the genetics of her own lambs. The overall genetics of the flock improve faster if you use great rams.

The ram cost varies considerably. Plan to spend KES 45,000 on a good ram.
Great rams will cost significantly more, think closer to KES 150,000-250,000 for a T5 mature ram.
If you want a good quality ram Whatsapp us on 0727553981.

One of the main reasons for infertility in a dairy herd is poor heat observation and timing.

To time insemination accurately, it is important to know when the
follicle will ovulate and release the egg from the o***y into the
oviduct. Normally a cow ovulates 24 to 30 hours after she first
stands to be mounted. A cow normally remains on standing heat
for about 12 to 15 hours. For the average cow, ovulation occurs
10 - 16 hours after it goes out of heat. It is important to
inseminate a cow at least 8 - 10 hours before ovulation because it
takes time for the s***m to reach the oviducts and also to undergo
the essential process of activation which takes six to eight hours
which is technically called capacitating fertility.
Guidelines for timing insemination are as follows: -
i. A cow seen on heat before 6am - inseminate today
ii. A cow seen on heat after 6am - inseminate tomorrow.
