We BREED. WE HATCH. WE GROW. WE SUPPLY.

The call by the Government of ESwatini that we need to revive the economy to which Agriculture was identified as one of the critical areas of focus, and through which our economy can be grown has resulted in a Farmer based at Eluvinjelweni by the Maguga Dam responding to the call. He has established and set up a poultry Hatchery with a focus on the production of 1-day Old Indigenous (Makhaya) Chicks.

1-DAY Old MAKHAYA CHICKS
We believe that the market of Makhaya chickens will not be realised if there is not set-up, and developed the production systems for Makhaya Chicks.

The production of 1-day Old Makhaya Chicks is considered revolutionary, and aimed to the support of the indigenous chicken farmers by ensuring a constant and sustained supply of quality, healthy chicks derived from a quality breeding stock.

We currently run weekly production and delivery schedules. Customers need to place in time to ensure consideration of their orders, and confirm their orders to ensure supply.

The minimum order quantity is 10 chicks, and bigger stock quantities can be supplied on order.

The chicks are supplied on order, and delivered to collection points around the country. There are no delivery charges to the customer.

We BREED. WE HATCH. WE GROW. WE SUPPLY

Kusile Farms located at Eluvinjelweni ka Ncesi, by the Maguga Dam practices a mixed farming activities. As part of his mixed farming activities, he also keeps the Guinea Fowls.

The Guinea Fowls are raised as a project to test of the guinea fowl can be used a potential alternate to poultry. Unlike chicken production, the Guinea Fowls is still at its infancy, and largely treated as a research project, but with full production set to commence in October 2019.

We have reason to believe that improvements in the production and increase in the number of mature birds can lead to a new market for Guinea Fowls meat in eSwatini.

The GUINEA FOWL
The Guinea Fowl is an indigenous bird to Africa, and raised mainly for meat and eggs. Guinea Fowl has a taste similar to other game birds, and similar nutritional qualities.

There's a variety of Guinea Fowls breeds, in different colours

The common Guinea Fowl weigh about 2kg. Comparatively, the female weighs more than the male.

Guinea Fowls are timid animals, and easily scared off.

Special Features of Guinea Fowls

Unlike chickens, the guinea fowl has certain special features. These include :

- hardiness
- resistant to many poultry diseases including Newcastle disease
- No requirement for expensive housing
- consumes all non-conventional feeds not used in chicken feeding
- More resistant to heat than chickens
- Guinea fowl meat is rich in vitamins and low cholesterol

Raising Guinea Fowls
Three methods of raising Guinea Fowls are free range, semi-intensive, and intensive system.

1. Free-range Farm
Free range farming is the predominant system by most farmers . Under this system the guinea fowl is allowed to roam about and around the yard or farm in search of its food and nutrition.

The biggest challenge in raising Guinea Fowls under free range system has to do with their destructive nature with plants and gardens. They can dig up plants in a field, causing serious damage and strained relationships with your neighbours.

2. Semi-Free Farming
A semi-free rearing environment includes the provision of housing for the guinea fowls. The environment in which the fowls are raised in must have perches for the fowls, and fenced all around. In some instances the birds have their wings cut to stop them from flying out of.

At Kusile Farms we have opted for the Semi Free Range method.

MANAGEMENT of BREEDING STOCK

Guinea hens start to lay at around September, the start of Spring season, and may continue to lay up to the end of March the following year.

Since our Guinea Fowls are in a confined housing, we ccollect the eggs laid every seven days. As they are timid and restless birds, we try to limit our visits to their nests, but still collect in time to ensure that the eggs are still fresh for hatching.

MATING RATIOS
In the wild Guinea Fowls breed in pairs. However under the domestic environment, pairing is not necessary. It is considered that 1 male to 6 females will give optimal fertility in your Guinea Fowls farming.

FEEDING GUINEA FOWLS
The situation in eSwatini is that certain farming ventures, which include Turkeys and Ostriches, are new, or have not necessarily reached the commercial level standard, which ultimately means that there is no commercial feed uniquely made and supplied to feed these animals. Guinea Fowls also fall under the same circumstances

We however have made use of chicken commercial feed for our Guinea Fowls.

Guinea Fowl Chicks (1 day Old to 4 Weeks) : Chicken starter feed is used.

The chicks, like chickens, are raised in a temperature controlled environment, ensuring warmth and sufficient nutrition and water.

Guinea Fowls (4-to-12 Weeks Old) : These chicks are fed on Chicken Grower feeds. They are also allowed to forage on grass.

Mature Guinea Fowls :
These are fed on mixed fowl, which comprises of sunflower seeds, sorghum and grain.

Clean water should always be available for the birds.

EGG PRODUCTION
Guinea Fowls can begin to lay eggs as early as the 16 and the 17th week. Laying of eggs will normally occur during the rainy season, summer.

The guinea fowl lays about 10 to 15 eggs. Guinea fow eggs are distinctly smaller than a hen's.

We collect the laid eggs and artificially hatch them in our incubators.

INCUBATION OF GUINEA FOWLS EGGS

Depending on the number of eggs laid by the Guinea Fowls, the eggs can be hatched either naturally or artificially. The normal incubation period for Guinea Fowls eggs is 28 days.

Natural incubation methods are recommended for small flocks. It is common for farmers to use their chicken hens to sit on the Guinea fowl eggs.

For bigger flocks of Guinea Fowls, egg hatching can be managed through artificial incubation.

GUINEA CHICKS REARING and BROODING

We raise our Guinea Fowls like we raise our chicks and chickens.

Once the guinea fowl chicks (keets) have hatched, they are transferred to a temperature controlled environment, the brooding room, wherein temperatures of about 37°Celsius are maintained for the first week.

This temperature is reduced by 4 degrees every week after, until they are 4 weeks old.

The brooding area surface is covered in saw dust to prevent the chicks from exposure to cold surfaces.

DISEASES
The domestic Guinea Fowls is not yet fully domesticated so they have the hardiness, and traits of their disease - resistant wild relatives. Therefore they do not suffer from many pests and diseases compared to the fully domesticated chicken

However, there is need to monitor your birds and ensure that they are free from some of the following :

- Fleas or Lice which may affect egg and meat production
- Roundworms which will impact egg production and general well-being
- Coccidiosis leading to weakened birds, through watery and bloody droppings

Whether DAGGA is legalised or not, Blacks won't be the beneficiaries of successful dagga businesses, unless they learnt to collaborate, pool their resources, land, capital, infrastructure, labour and access to markets.

We have no success stories under maize production, which so happens to be our staple food, not because maize is a product that has no consumers or the prices are poor, but there are more arguments that our approach is flawed, individualistic, and perpetually bound to fail because of many factors, but all linked to our failure to organise ourselves.

Imagine if we could pool up a portion our land resources within a certain community (hoping kutsi SAHLELISWA KAHLE), contribute a certain amount towards capital to plough the land and buy implements before summer, contribute towards labour, which can be paid out of the capital contributions amounts from each family or village (which provides for employment for some of our people in the villages and communities), and start planting the maize fields.

The results thereof, within a community and over time, can be far more than what each family currently receives from their fields working alone. Additionally, the yield may be higher due to the pooled resources plus the attention given to each piece of land by a single person or family. The profit share, in terms of either share of maize received or the dividend from selling the maize, is likely to be higher....

Unfortunately, I am just dreaming.... imagining things. We are not much of a people who believe in coming up together to solve our problems. We would rather pray about stuff we needed solved, and leave things in the hands of the Almighty! However the truth is we have the evidence that some people that we know, including our relatives in the Sugar Cane Projects, have had some success, even failures, doing the same thing. We could emulate and win...

The story here is not about DAGGA cultivation, but our mindset towards certain growth and development that we need. So whether it's production of dagga, sugar cane, maize, beans etc that we seek to venture into, we will never win, or never attain the numbers required by our economy and for export, unless we change our approach to production....

People complain about the Brazilian chicken products flooding the local chicken markets as if the Brazilian Chicken is from one farmer!! Definitely not!! It means that the Brazilian farmers, and Government, have better organised themselves and are self-sufficient to even export their products.

At the end of the day, we will not benefit much from all our toiling, our land and water resources, including our limited capital if we do not collaborate and work as groups or associations.

Individual farms, whether under Dagga/Wheat/Maize/Sorghum /Chicken/Goats or Sugar Cane, will not benefit us much unless we organise around farmer networks.

50 years after Independence we still cannot feed ourselves from all our maize fields combined. Our planted staple food, which is maize, does not last us for more than 3 months even in years of bumper harvests!! You may want to check with NMC on this fact!! Every year by November, we're already importing maize from South Africa.

Individual success is possible, only if you are into prostitution!!

The Aseel (Asil) c***s on our Kusile Farms

The Aseel has its origins in Pakistan, and is a bird largely used in cock-fighting. They are aggressive towards one another, and always ready to pick up a fight with a male chicken.

We have acquired two (2) c***s, and we seek to breed them.

Also attached are pictures of the Pekin Ducks which will start breeding in the next few weeks.

Kusile Farms. We BREED. WE HATCH. WE GROW. WE SUPPLY.

Our pig breeding station is almost complete. Our pure breeds, Landrace and Duroc are already on site.

We are expecting our first sale of quality, piglets this end of May. We are working on monthly batches to ensure quality products, all the time for our pig growing farmers supply.

Today we're taking it easy, Sunday chillers in our Kusile Farms Pig Breeding Mall.

However, if you are three (3) days old piglets , you get to have your teeth clipped, your tail docked, and get an iron injection... It's a small price to pay for the little ones...

We are excited, but we appreciate the patience and encouragement for some of the farmers who have been to our Farm, Eluvinjelweni ka Ncesi, before the Maguga Dam.


We still have 1-Week Old Chicks (Black Australop, Boschvelder and Koek Koeks (Imphangele)), 4-Weeks Old and 6-Weeks Old for sale.


Our Pekin ducks are ready for breeding and will be available for sale as at the end of June 2019.

On the 1st of May 2019, Kusile Farms recognise and understand that ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL, BUT OUR ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.. !!

We continue to BREED some of the quality chicken breeds. We have, in our farm, Black Australop, Boschvelder, Koek Koek (Imphangele), Malay Game chicken and the Indian Game chicken.

We continue to HATCH from our laying chickens, in particular the Black Australop, Boschvelder, and Potch Koek Koeks, and have chicks of different ages and sizes for sale.
These form part of our GROWER stock, which is for sale, and part of it will be grown to maturity.

We are currently waiting and have GROWING, our point of lay Turkeys to come into the breeding season in August.

We are pleased with the growth and progress results from our Pekin Ducks, which are ready for production purposes as at the end of May.

Our PIG BREEDING Station is almost complete. We are slowly bringing in pregnant sows into the Farm, and are excited with the progress made so far. We will be ready to sell (SUPPLY) the first batch of piglets by the end of this month.

OUR aim is to provide farmers, on an ongoing weekly /monthly basis, with piglets to those who seek to start off piggery Farms. We have invested in the BEST and QUALITY breeds on our Farm, and are open for your viewing or enquiry.

We continue to make strides to ensuring a habitable environment for our animals, improving on bio-security and general health. We remain weary of the reports of the African Swine Fever currently sweeping through Southern Africa. We are taking up the necessary measures to ensure an upgraded bio~security system.
