Want to take eggs to the shopkeeper, bike
Want to get veges for the family, bike

Before meets After 🔥

I gave my pure Kienyeji hen eggs from my improved Kienyeji.
She hatched them, raised them for 1 month, and now... she's brooding again! This time with pure Kienyeji eggs.

Chicks in the photo are now 8 weeks old and thriving.

Pure Kienyeji mothers, best incubators.
No power, no stress.

Pigia mwili pole - town vs farm 😅

In town, I used to have 1001 financial debates,ten foregone plans just to afford chicken.

On the farm, neighbour spoils my day? I slaughter one. No second thinking.

Eish farm life is sweet... this is where I belong 🐔

Between chicken and egg which came first

Feeds.... my dear feeds come first
Chicken farmers how are you holding up

Sometimes the motivation is the vision...
Time to sow the seed...
Lemon seedling to be grafted later...
In 2 years time, we will enjoy pixie oranges from this same seedling 🙏 🙏

Projects educate and expose you...

I gained a lot during the construction of our house. Here I was picking customised roofing materials from the manufacturer.

A driver had lied to me that his pick-up would carry a 4.5 meters long iron sheet. Makosaa... we were almost turned back at the factory gate! 😅

Lesson learnt: Factories don't compromise on safety of their materials.

I think I should come up with a thread to share my stories and mistakes so you don't repeat them. 🤔
