This morning I received a call from a farm's owner that I had revamped his farm about 2 months ago.
"Hello Taukey! I am very happy kau kau, 2 yrs my farm only got 15 nests and now after 2 months with your advice and visit my farm got 29 nests. Wow I wait 2 yrs only 15 nests now 2 months later got 14 nests.....Your Love potion very Kau Kau.Thank you, thank you, thank you,..............."
Do you know that all temperature in all floors is not the same? The 1st fl, the 2nd n so one.
Given a 3 storey farm the ground floor temperature are lower than the top floor. How do we know there are differences in temperature? Well get a Hygrometer or a Temperature Sensor Gun.
With these tools it will help you to understand the variation of temp of each floor. The often asked questions were "How come all birds stayed on ground floor?” Why all stayed on 1 floor and not other floor?" There are many factors influencing this and temperature is one of them.
A farm is not a complete farm if it is without the above tools.
Let’s see below;
I was invited to revive a failed farm by a farmer in Taiping. The location of this farm was good. It stood amongst those that are harvesting more than 10kgs above /month. All his neighbors were doing quite ok except him.
His farm was on the top floor of his office/shop which facing the main road. Every evening you could see thousands of birds circling on top of these farms waiting to go in. Sadly only few choose his farm. His farm was done by a consultant from Kelantan.............It was a 2 yrs farm but sadly in such potential area his farm managed to attract birds to build 15 nests. To me I considered this as totally fails.
The moment I entered the farm I could feel that the micros were totally out.
I asked him "didn't you know that you temp is easily above the acceptable level?" His reply "no!"
I asked him do you have a Hygrometer. He replied "what is that? Oh no' then I explained "something that can read the temp". He smiled and says oh I have.
So I asked where is it. He leaded me to the so called roving and showed me. I was surprised, it was those small thermometer which we can get it from the 2 dollar shop, probably cost about Rm 1.00.
When I looked at the reading it was 28dg. I shake it, it still 28dg. So this thermometer has been reading 28dg all the time. I took out my Sensor gun & Hygrometer which I always bring along with me and checked .It was 35dg, I showed to him. I asked, didn't the consultant provide you with the Hygrometer? As usual "No"!
I really pity him, his farm's renovation cost is more than Rm60K and all he got was this.
There are so many problems besides the temp, there are dozens of things to be rectified. I had advised him on all aspect of reviving his poor farm. At the same time a set of CD sound was given to him to replace his current Cd sound and few bottles of Love Potion too.
So never take micros lightly. Most would say "Ai ya! If birds want to stay even the worst Micro they will stay"
This is a wrong perception.
