Title of Project The cost analysis of rearing two hundred (200) Broiler Chicks .
Aim of Project To determine the profit made by rearing two h undred birds at the end of a six weeks period.
Introduction to Project 1
2
This project was carried out by the researcher at his residence where some of the necessary infrastructure infrastructure needed was already established. established. This helped him to reduce his expenses in venturing out to this project.
The main objectives in carrying out this project are as follows:
To determine the cost analysis of rearing two hundred broiler chicks. To determine whether a profit will be made at the end of the six-week period.
Method of data collection 2
3
1. Two hundred broiler chicks were bought along with nine bags of ration and one bag broken rice at a local chicken shop. 2. Eighteen bags of shaving were bought at a local furniture shop. 3. Two hundred Chicks were housed in the Pen of dimensions (10 M x 20 M) and they were fed and given water for a duration time of six weeks and for every three weeks six bags of shaving were utilized to keep the moisture of the floor of the pen at a constant temperature. 4. At the end of the six weeks period the chicks were weighed and sold at $300/lb. in bulk to a local chicken business shop. 5. The income from selling the chicks were tabulated and calculated at the end of the six weeks period. 6. The expenditure was tabulated and calculated. 7. The profit made by the researcher of rearing 200 broiler chicks were calculated using the formula: Profit= Income - Expenditure Expenditure 8. A histogram was drawn to show the rate of consumption of the different types of ration during the six weeks period. 9. A line graph was plotted to show the mortality rate of chicks over the six weeks period. 10. The feed conversion ratio was calculated using the formula total feed consumed/total consumed/total amount of lbs. produced by chickens.

PROFIT MADE
Using the formula Profit made = Income – Expenditure
= $ 240,000 - $ 79,700 =$ 160,300. Calculation of the feed conversion ratio
Information needed for calculation: Total feed = 100 lb./1bg X 9bg = 900 lbs. l bs. 1 bag of broken rice = 90 lb . Total amount of weight of Chicken = 800 lbs .
Feed Conversion Ratio = TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEED CONSUMED/TOTAL AMOUNT F.C.R = 990 lbs./800 lbs. OF POUNDS PRODUCED BY BIRDS
= 1:1.2 5
6
So, for everyone unit of feed consumed by chicks produced 1.2 lbs. of carcass.
Analysis and Discussion

7
Whilst analyzing the project, the necessary infrastructure for the housing of the birds was already established at the researcher’s home so this helped to reduce the expense of carrying out this project. A total number of two h hundred undred (200) chicks were checked and purchased at a local chicken shop for one hundred and sixty dollars ($160 ) per chick which incurred the researcher researcher a total cost of thirty two two thousand dollars( $32,000) $32,000) at a local chicken shop named ” Fazaloo chicken shop” along with nine bags of ration at a cost of $45,900,twenty bags of shaving shaving were bought at a local local furniture shop at a total cost of two thousand dollars ( $2,000) .The total expense of the researcher carrying out this project seventy nine thousand and nine hundred dollars ($79,900). This project was successfully executed at the researcher’s home and a mortality rate of twelve and a half percent (12.5 %) which was unexpected, due to this there was a small decreased in the profit that was made by carrying out this project.
Discussion of findings Two statements based on findings are:
Broiler ration was consumed more than the other types of ration There was a high mortality rate of chicks at stage one and then there was a sudden decline in stages two and three and there was a slight increase at stage four.
From the histogram, the chicks consumed more broiler starter ration as compared to the other two types of ration because the starter ration contains a high nutritive value. Looking at the line graph there was a high mortality rate of chicks at stage one then there was a sudden decline at stages two and three thr ee and there was a slight increase at stage four. f our. One reason for why there was a high mortality rate of chicks at stage one could be that the chicks were not vaccinated properly.
Conclusion 7
8
A profit was made at the end of a six-week period. The total profit was calculated to be one hundred and sixty thousand dollars ($160,000) and there was a mortality rate of twelve and a half percent of chicks.
