“From 400 layers, I now have over 1,000 layer birds from which I harvest 25 crates of eggs daily, and I have also grown my broiler birds from the initial 200 seed stock to 400. By God’s grace I am growing.

My business is imparting positively on other families also. I have two employees on my payroll. I look forward to expansion”
