THE BEST BROILER BREED YOU NEED TO KNOW.

There are numerous species of broilers including Ross 308, Marshall Broilers, Cob 500, Arbor Acre plus, Hubbard and Anak, but we’ll be discussing the 3 major ones in this post.

1. Abhor Acre plus breed of Broiler
2. Ross 308 breed of Broiler
3. Cobb 500 breed of Broiler

Although the result for all broilers remains meat, they perform differently and meet their target meat value at different stages. Understanding this simple truth will help you always have the best experience as a broiler farmer.

Before going for the type of broiler breed, you should have an aim. I mean who are you producing your broilers for? If a suya man is your main target, you should consider raising a broiler that doesn’t have much fat and reach the market size within 4 – 5 weeks. Why? Because the suya men don’t buy too big chickens that has too much fat since it’ll be more difficult for them to roast.

ROSS 308

ROSS 308 Broilers are known for their fast growth rate, good breastmeat, excellent feed conversion and considerable lean meat (low fat meat)

ABOR ACRE PLUS

They are known for their heavy feeding, good weight and carcass and (good feed conversion)

COBB 500

The REAL Cobb 500 breed of broilers are known for their lean meat, good height, and good breast mean and good feed conversion.

If you’re a seller looking to market your chickens live, it is best to go for Cobb 500 from Zartech hatchery and ROSS 308 from Agrited hatchery because of their height and growth performance.

If you’re a farmer who does frozen chicken sales, Abhor Acre plus breed from CHI hatchery are best because of their heavy weight and overall carcass quality. These species may not grow as tall as the Cobb and Ross breed but their weight may take a match.

Just my opinion based on research.
