It was 2015 when I had the idea of trying to venture into egg production business. Then I started asking for suggestions, and it took me 2 years to finally gain sufficient courage to better start into it. So after loaning the capital startup, that I purchased the materials needed for the cage and the housing. I already have ordered for the layer chicken and hope for them to arrive in the next few weeks. I have outlined the activities that followed as I dedicated part of my summer vacation for it. The outlined activities did not make it to completion but somehow gave me a good overview of the output. So it was April 12, 2017 Wednesday when we went home. It was the arrival and considered Day 00.

Day 01: Cutting the pipes for the posts.
As it is my first time to work on these kind of tasks that I made several mistakes specially on the length of pipes though I simply thought of sticking to the planned specifications. The mistakes seemed alright for the adjustments made though.

Day 02: Welding the post footing, erecting the posts



Day 03: Adding some supporting braces



Day 04: Placing the roofing


Day 05: Cementing the side and lower wall


Day 06: Cementing the flooring



Day 07: Painting the angle bars with primer paint

Day 08: Assembling the cage

Day 09: Placing the flat sheets for the wall

Day 10: Mounting the cage on layers


So that's where things finished. Thanks to my bro Rolly for the job well done. I hope things don't stop at this and more to go. I will make sure to keep you updated after these. Praying that this egg layer business will push through. 

Update: October 2017



Finally, after months of waiting, the hens were delivered on the last weeks of September. For the delivery we were unprepared as we had no containers for the hens for the transport to our place, then to their cages. Fortunately, the ones who delivered them lent us the crates so we just had to transport them hens home. Well, they were termed Ready to Lay (RTL) but they actually weren't laying eggs yet. We need to prepare them for four more weeks before they start laying eggs. I have prepared a video but have a hard time uploading so we use the pictures. To God be the glory. The chickens are eating healthily so far. Eager to see them laying eggs and I hope to post their pics here soon. God Bless.
