About Me

I was raised by a single mother who educated me through some hardship. I eventually completed my high school education and enrolled for a diploma in Information Technology at JKUAT.

After my education and with long months of searching for employment, I decided to start rearing rabbits and local Kienyeji chicken. I started rearing 2 agricultural rabbits and five Kienyeji chicken after undergoing a training seminar at the Ministry of Livestock. After a few months, my stock began increasing and in two years, I was farming a stock of 150 rabbits and 100 local Kienyeji chicken.

I come from the western part of my country where people only believe in getting employment and discourage self-employment. With my current livestock, I am able to sustain my family's needs and show how life can also be built from livestock keeping.

Currently I am married and I am blessed with a son. My hobby is watching documentaries, especially on farming techniques, and that is where I also get motivated. I also enjoy sports.

My Business

In my farming project, I produce and sell mature rabbits at a cost of 2,000 Ksh. and above, rabbit weaners at a cost of 800 Ksh., and rabbit manure at a cost of 50 Ksh. to local farmers. Chicken market goes at 1,500 Ksh. for cocks and 800 to 1,000 Ksh. for hens. A tray of eggs costs between 300 to 350 Ksh., whereas a one-month chick generates 200 Ksh. So now there if the production of food in many peoples homes.

Generally I keep rabbits and local chicken together with the ken-bro breed. My intention is to add to my stock of the layer chickens so as to increase the production of eggs. Out of the research that I have been able to carry out, there is a real need for chicken eggs within my own locality, and I want to sustain the market by at least rearing 600 layer chickens within the next six months.

Loan Proposal

This is my expected expenditure when I receive my next loan.
Buying 10 rabbit weaners @ 105.26 USD.
6 Mature hens @50.53 USD
3 (50kg) bags of feed @ 67.89 USD
Total loan request - 223.68 USD

My request for this loan will help me increase the breeding stock both in rabbits and chicken.
For instance, the chicken will increase egg production and also production of fertilised eggs for chick production. This will help try and meet the growing demand in the local market.

Meeting the supply demand, will increase profits by supplying eggs, chicks, rabbit weaners and chicken meat.
