Noiler is a very reliable producer of day-old chicks
Noiler is a dual-purpose breed (for both eggs and meat) of chicken developed by Amo Farm Sieberer Hatchery Ltd. (AFSH) in Nigeria. Noiler was developed over several years through a pedigree breeding and selection program, and the first commercial stock was launched to the market in 2014. Noiler, the first dual-purpose bird in Africa, is a registered trademark of AFSH.
Noiler is a very reliable producer of day-old chicks
“I was struggling financially before I heard about Noiler birds. I started out as a Mother Unit with 100-day-old chicks, raising them in an abandoned room in my house. Gradually, things got better. Today, I comfortably brood and sell no less than 500 birds, which I now rear in erected cages. I am now able to give my kids a good education, and my family has easy access to both meat and eggs, which has led to the growth and development of the children.”
“Being a widow, Noiler has been my main source of income. It has helped me to provide for myself and my children. I have been able to send them to school, and they have all graduated. I have also expanded my capacity, so I no longer must depend on family members for financial support. I make money every 5 weeks, and I am known everywhere as “Iya aladie ogidi” (mother of the big chickens), which makes me happy.”
“Exactly eight weeks ago, I bought four Noilers (2 males and 2 females) and kept them in a makeshift cage not too far from my Shayi joint. I feed them with leftover crumbs of bread and noodles. I was able to sell the male Noilers at 3,500 each. I had to bring out money from the sale of my farm produce to buy 300-day old chicks. I will care for them and feed them well so I can have more profit.”
“I am a single mother of four children. I have been crippled since birth, which has made it difficult for me to provide for my family. A philanthropist gave me ten birds, three males and seven females. I raised the birds to maturity and sold three of them for 4,000 naira each. I used the money to buy food and clothes for my children, and to buy more birds. I slaughtered one of the adult birds for family consumption.
When the female Noilers started laying eggs, I included them in my children’s meals. I also started selling the remaining eggs to my neighbors. The second batch of birds are growing well, and I am happy that I will have more eggs to sell. I am grateful to the philanthropist who gave me the birds, and I am determined to provide a better life for my children.”
“I am a father of sixteen children with four wives. Only four of my children were able to attend school because I did not have the financial means to send all of them. On September 22, 2021, the Noiler team visited our community in Gombe State to sensitize us about the benefits of rearing Noilers. I was intrigued by the potential benefits for my family, so I decided to buy birds for my wives as Smallholder Household Farmers (SHFs).
Today, we have a flock of 200 Noilers. We eat some chicken and sell the rest. The money from the sale of adult Noilers in January has allowed me to send all my children back to school. I am grateful for the opportunity to raise Noilers and for the benefits that they have brought to my family.”
