I was born and raised in Kiplokyi area of Bomet county to a family of 6 children. I attended Kiplokyi primary school and thereafter Kongotik girls. My parents were primarily farmers and kept poultry as their main source of income. I couldn't proceed to college because I wasn't intellectually gifted and thus decided to help my parents in their day to day activities. Driven by the passion that I developed for rearing chicken, I decided to be my own man and curve my own niche here in Ngata Nakuru where i reiside.. From 5 parent stock that my father gave me to start with, I have managed to increase them to 25. In future it is my dream to own a large poultry farm holding high egg laying chicken.
Joy Poultry Farm rears local poultry for sale in the local market. I decided to start this business after acquiring skills from ACK Development Services on Enterprenuership. Initially I was just a housewife and life was getting harder with only my spouse as a bread winner. I tried to look for a way in which I could complement his efforts and that begotten the Joy Poultry Far
To help me do electrical installation in my poultry house to enable me operate an egg incubator since I have realized I can increase my stock faster and create steady supply by purchasing fertilized eggs and hatching using an incubator. This is a more affordable and sustainable way of increasing stock than purchasing day old chicks.
