Difference between Noilers and Laying Birds in Egg production
Let's talk about Poultry NOILER birds
Many poultry farmers must have heard or seen
noiler birds, some even call it Israel birds,
some hatchery have even changed the name to
attract more market by calling it Dual or
Nobbler but all as same species of bird, the
noiler birds was first introduced to the Nigerian
Market as noiler by AMO hatchery it was a
science of combination of broiler and cockerel
traits in one bird, the idea behind it is to have
rugged bird that can withstand some
household disease and still produce meat and
egg for the owners
At the time of introduction there were many
resistance from farmers who did not
understand the breed at that time it was more
expensive than cockerel although cheaper than
broilers and pullets but with constant market
penetration has come now to compete
favourably but there are many farmers who
confuse this birds because of the market hype.
First of all Noilers are good birds, they are
strong and can go on free range without issues
but if you are planning on commercial egg
production don't use noilers in replacement of
pullets / layers they are not same some even
compare it with Isa brown it's not same Isa
brown was designed for constant egg laying
ability but noiler was also for meat so it cannot
compete with isa brown on egg production.
So ask do noilers lay eggs yes they do.
But remember we also have male noilers as we
have female noilers.
In terms of Meat products Broilers produce
more meat than noilers
So ask if noilers can hatch their eggs not all
but before the egg can hatch it must have been
fertilized by a male noiler or cockerel or native
bird, what do some farmers do after they are
sure of their fertilized egg if their boiler refused
to hatch the eggs they put it on any local bird
hatching or take it to an incubator to hatch for
them.
So in conclusion boilers are good birds but you
can't compare them to pullets/layers for
commercial egg production or Broilers for
commercial meat production
