Here, chickie, chickie, chickie!

{Chicken structures from our Sesheke visits}


One recent workshop covered rearing village chickens for profit. Challenges in raising chickens include:
  • Predators—snakes, birds, or small animals snatching chicks
  • Disease—knowing what it is, how to treat it, where to get medicine (and then following through with the knowledge and actually getting and using the necessary medicine)
  • Food—if there’s not much food to go around in the family, there’s definitely not enough to feed the birds!
