yet another batch slaughtered!!

On Friday the 7th we managed to slaughter a 100 more chickens, we will slaughter another 80 next week.
We thank God for the healthy chickens, they are pretty big and our customers are very happy at the size.

We failed to buy a 100 more last Friday but this week we shall deliver about 100 chickens, as well as next week so that we have a constant supply again next month. The team members slaughtered 171 chickens a week and half ago, they still have a few left in the freezer and we added the 100 that we slaughtered last Friday. We hope we will sell all the chickens within this month, including the 80 that we will slaughter next week

Good day

for that Live taste

This recent photo shows the chickens that are partitioned, we have managed to buy 5different lots of chickens, meaning that we are just a week away from "closing the gap", a statement that that was coined between the Livebirds Zim and USA leaders which means a situation where we will be able to slaughter a batch of chickens, which automatically means that we will be supplying businesses and individuals on a weekly basis.

We thank God for the taxi which is making life easier, we managed to buy three batches of chickens these past 3 weeks, and there is Hardlife who joined recently, a huge blessing to Livebirds. Hardlife is worthy a full article of himself which we shall upload soon. We thank God for the team and we pray that God's hand be upon this business venture. The main goal is to have at least 700 chickens in stock  and more than two taxis cashing in every week, Yes-we can

new Batch

photo shows 110 chickens ,4 feeding troughs and some watering troughs bought last Friday. We are buying an average of a 100chickens every week so that we have a constant supply of chickens to our customers.
Gone are the days when we had to wait for another month to get another batch of chickens ready for sale.

We thank God for Hardlife who is looking after the chickens this week. We want to be the leading suppliers of chickens in Zimbabwe and we are optimistic and determined to make LIVEBIRDS a household name through consistent supply of chickens.

Meet Hardlife Moyana, the new Livebirds Member

Meet the new LIVEBIRDS member, Hdrdlife Moyana. The photo shows Hardlife playing with his new phone that was given to him for easy comms at the farm.

He is captured attending to some chickens at the farm. Hardlife is hardworking and has brought some new ideas about keeping chickens.He brought a brilliant idea that helped stop the death of many chicks during these cold days that we are experiencing in Zimbabwe.
When Hardlife came in the picture we were losing chickens because of the cold spell in Zimbabwe, in June and July Zimbabwe is usually very cold with ground temperatures below zero in some areas, this results in many chickens dying especially when the chickens are still below 20days of age.
Hardlife brought a brilliant idea, he collected all the 2litre plastic bottles at the farm(we always have many lying around because of the Mazoe drink that we buy always).

Every morning around 3am(when it begins to be really  cold)he fills all the 13 containers with hot water , and wraps the containers with a newspaper to retain the heat for a longer period. The bottled,warm water provides warmth to the chickens for about 4hours and we recorded a very significant drop in the death of the chicks since two weeks ago when he started it. When he was questioned he said that he learnt that technique from his grandmother who used to rear 100 chickens for sale every two months.

We managed to buy some bulbs that provide warmth to the chickens but still some chickens were buying, Hardlife’s method proved effective-though it means putting a 25 litre container of water every morning around 2am. Last week Friday we delivered 110chickens to the farm and the 110 are all alive when I checked this morning. The idea is to have 800 or more chickens at the farm at any given time and we are closing the gaps, a statement that we coined recently which means that we have to sell a 100 chickens every week and we are buying a 100 chickens every week to close any gap after a month(ie closing a gap where we would have had  a week without slaughtering chickens)

May God bless LIVEBIRDS, and our friends in America.

LIVEBIRDS ON TRACK!

LIVEBIRDS Business last Friday bought another 100 chickens to the farm, we now have 440 chickens in 3different batches, the 1st batch will be ready for sale on the 15th of July, before then we would have bought another batch of 100 chickens.

Hardlfe Moyana(the new Livebirds member) is a responsible young man and has been at the farm for the past 10days-the chickens are very healthy and well-looked after, the brooders are neat and cleaned daily.

We thank God for moving with us so far, and for giving us such good friends as Warehouse 242 church in Charllotte,USA.

The recent taxi business is doing very well, we have received $240-00 yesterday(Monday) for the week, we have recepted over $1200 so far for this month and half that the taxi has operated, we thank God for the viability of this project. The driver cashes in $240-00 weekly  if we do not use the taxi but around $200 per week when we use the car for LIVEBIRDS business.


In Christ,
