Poultry farming has existed since society began.  The industry, like other branches of agricultrue in Nigeria forms the basis of the culture.  It is a way of life.  It started from the subsistence level where people reared birds for domestic purposes and over time, it developed into a means of earning income.

A poultry farming business focuses on raising domestic birds commercially for their eggs and meat.  Such domestic birds include chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese and guinea fowls.
