You can get rich through any business including poultry farming. I have seen many rich farmers and very poor farmers. This is common in every business. Below are the real reasons why some people never make real money in poultry farming business: 1. Disorganization Oh yes. Some farmers are so disorganized. The real truth is that disorganized people don't make money. Order, they say is the first law in heaven. Money is usually magnetic to order. How would you know that you are making profit yet you do not have records for your expenses? 2. Cruelty Some farmers are cruel to their workers. Always shouting. Always threatening workers.

But of course I am not saying that you should babysit the workers! 3. Chop Alone Mentality Some farmers

Colibacillosis, or E. coli infection, is an opportunistic bacterial infection that affects poultry and causes a lot of losses to the farmer. The disease is caused by a bacteria, the Escherichia coli (mostly abbreviated as E. coli). Escherichia coli exists as a good bacteria in our gut and in the intestines of the bird, but it becomes infectious if given the opportunity either by a viral infection or too much stress onto the birds. How Does It Happen? 1.     If the birds are eating contaminated feed and drinking dirty water.
