Much easier and faster buying BSFL from a local producer. Usually very cheap. I’m also new to BSFL farming to feed my chickens. The larvae are very particular and a joy to learn how to raise them. Good luck!

[@coachsalim4700]

The gist of breeding soldier flies is to reduce the cost of feeds, buying is not the best option

[@jacquelinedonald519]

Anxious to see the results

[@hasanchoudhury5401]

Thanks.

[@saleshnarayan9115]

Hello doctor Daniel Very nice

[@mynigerianfarm7092]

i recently got some bsf in the wild for use in my farm for the same purpose and i am building the population now. one advise; these flies are notorious for not wanting to mate, so if you find any in the wild... keep setting more traps because you need lots and lots and lots of them in the cage for mating to be induced. and since they die within a week, you still need wild populations to keep the eggs going until you have a stable system.

[@FarmUp]

Oh wow. Had no idea. Thanks for the advice.

[@boborock2012]

Teach on because I have all your videos. This is the project I intend to carryout, so your channel is my classroom🤦‍♂️

[@reliablewindowcleaning9829]

I have larva naturally develop in my compost pile, some people put piles of compost in with the chickens, they love to scratch and eat the bugs and larva in the compost. Thats what I going to do when I get my land.

[@crystalgalarsa3597]

I put my food scraps in my red wiggler worm bin outside and the soldier flies fill it with eggs and the larvae and worms co exist. The larvae come to the top if i put fresh scraps in and i just scoop them out for the chickens.

[@juliemcgugan1244]

I also had them in my composting worm bins, too. They did seem to live together in peace, because I was putting enough food in for both.

[@goldenboy1060]

Great video let's see if we can catch any flies.

[@FarmUp]

🤞🏽

[@afrobest3007]

Wow! I'm so impressed. I'm planning to do the same in Nigeria as soon as I start with my project. Well done 👏

[@aruwewetv6018]

Yes ooooo my guy. Nigeria still has a long way to go ooooooo. The last time I checked about this BSF farming in Nigeria, only one guy is doing it in Nigeria. Well only saw that guy's video on KZbin, maybe there are more doing it locally but not on social media. So my guy, go ahead and do it. By so doing you will be adding value to the community and as a result be making money. God bless you jare.

[@Marysamuel]

@@aruwewetv6018 amen oo. Looking forward to starting as well.. but getting the larvae is so hard as hell in Nigeria. Less information online

[@tobatiamiyu9905]

@@Marysamuel I got some larvae from someone in Anambra state and they just turned to fly a few days ago and we are still waiting for them to mate. Another guy promised he would sell for me soon here in Lagos. It could change a lot of this for us here in Nigeria if done well.

[@aruwewetv6018]

@@Marysamuel Good day my sister and hope you are doing wonderfully well. Its shocking to hear that BSF larvae are difficult to get in Nigeria, to be honest I would have tot they should be everywhere in Nigeria oooooo. Hope you are using something with strong smell as a bait to attract the BSF. Maybe you need to watch more videos on KZbin bcus there are so many videos out there on how to go about it. Also if you buy fresh fish from market and you placed the intestine, Gills and every internal stuff in a bowl and place it in a warm environment BUT not direct sun light oooo bcus the Sun will dry up or kill the egg laid by the BSF ooooo. Make sure is not extremely dried by the sunlight and give it 24 to 48 hours, at the end of which you should be have your larvae. God bless you

[@danielobinna8242]

Please I want to ask, if you do all you've stated, how sure are you that you are not going to be attracting the normal housefly? Again, how are you gonna differentiate the house fly larvae from the BSF larvae?

[@celianelafrance6069]

Hi, I got some started in my compost when I wasn't trying to, I believe it was because I added chicken bone to my compost• I love your ideas , thank you for your honest advise.

[@FarmUp]

Awesome. 💪🏼

[@fayiabrimafayia1509]

Nice one

[@christianaiyabodeakerele8132]

Thanks can one use plantain peel 4 attracting the black flies

[@GideonOLUDAYOMI]

You are right. Feeds are just so expensive these days. I am really getting inspired by you. I would like to ask, can I use maggots to feed my chickens?

[@FarmUp]

Yes you can

[@nakazziaisha1794]

Thanks Dr. Daniel. But i would like to inquire from u pls.do kroilers bring out money if reared for egg production and do they have market when selling off layers.

[@FarmUp]

Yes they do. Just do it smart

[@clancyngosamweshi8439]

So powerful

[@annburge291]

If the banana plants are organic, can you can supplement the chicken diet with banana leaves? You might need to shred them.

[@katlegomolebatsi9734]

Never thought I would hear someone saying he or she is hunting for flys

[@FarmUp]

😅

[@maygweje6869]

Weird right? But stranger things have happened. We are really awakening to the wisdom of God and how He hid treasure in the things that would otherwise be deemed worthless. I am in awe.

[@sanyuable]

Hello, u can go to face book and join a group called " Instigate Africa Piggery" , they said they deal with BSF. And they have them . I don't know if it's true. And they are located in Mbale Called Mr Mweru. . So find more information about him. I also interested in BSF so keep us informed . Good luck . Thx for the lessons u are giving us.

Sir what kind of vaccine you use for your chicken? Pls link the video..

[@judeigwe8125]

Greetings from Nigeria Pls what happen if houseflies perch on it

[@saidimaya3958]

Im sure if at all there are BSFs around ,then they should be roaming around closer to your chicken house.As they will be attracted by chicken dropings

[@FarmUp]

The plantation is about 15m from the house. I hope that's not too far

[@ThePablok]

When u set the traps for the BSF... won't it attract houseflies as well then one have a massive fly concoction....

[@ThePablok]

And apart from th larvae what else should one feed your chickens and is it food for broilers as well?

Good morning Dr. Daniel. My name is Daniel from Nigeria I'm a student of FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY OWERRI. For some time now, I have been in deep thought on how to get alternative biological source of fish feed that made me go into research and fortunately for me I saw you video. Please sir, where is your current location and how can I get this BSF. I want to go deeply into producing it sir. I love agriculture and I want to start now. Thank you sir.

for sure the texture will be different but a better on

Have you thought of farming your land as Justin Rhodes & Joel Salitin. Use electric fencing & chicken rickshaws, to till & fertilize you land, you don't need brick & mortar, just cheap mobile electric fencing & mobile chicken coops with a section of land (paddocks), to grow more plants & vegetables. Owning & growing on a farm is the positive proactive side of being a medical doctor. You are honoring Hypocrites edict; Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food.
