Poultry equipment are tools or instruments that are used for purposes like hatching, brooding, housing, feeding, cleaning, and maintaining good conditions in poultry farms. Basically, small farm owners require manual equipment that will effectively fulfil their purpose but at the commercial level of production, the huge amount of birds will require more sophisticated equipment and labour with technical-know how to power them. Depending on the level of your production, there is a variety of equipment to select from.

Poultry production involves the husbandry of poultry birds. It involves a series of activities of rearing birds like chicken, turkey, quail, guinea fowl, and ducks for the purpose of meat, egg or sale. These varying level of production differs in terms of cost of production, stock size, labour intensity, method of production, equipment used and market size. The equipment variation is our concern in this article. Ranging from plastic to automatic feeders, the choice of poultry farming equipment depends on the size of bird stock and it is imperative to use the right poultry farming equipment for the right size of birds.
