Heat is required for up to 4 weeks therefore for farmers who don’t have brooder can buy our 4 weeks old chicks
The minimum order for chicks is 50 (if you are buying chicks under 2 week old), this is to make sure they keep each other warm while they are being transported to their new home. For farmers buying 3+ weeks old chicks – minimum order is 10 chicks
KARI Improved Kienyeji Chicken was developed after years of intensive research under the National Poultry Development Programme.
Vaccination
Before leaving our hatchery vaccinates the chicks from the deadly Marek’s disease . We also provides the farmers with a vaccination schedule against:- Gumboro Newcastle, Fowl pox etc
KARI improved Kienyeji are easy to maintain since they can be kept under the free range system or deep litter depending on your financial ability and objectives.
Those who want them to mature faster or produce more eggs should keep them in a semi-intensive or deep litter system. This way the chickens don’t spend a lot of energy. As mentioned about, KARI Improved chicken are dual-purpose, therefore farmers have an option of keeping them as layers, for meat or both.
When fed with quality feeds available from accredited manufacturers, a hen can reach up to 1.5kg in five months and a cock weighs 2.1kg. A hen starts laying at 5 month old and can produce between 200 and 250 eggs a year, while Kuroiler lays 150 – 180 eggs. KALRO hens lays bigger eggs (size) compared to both Kuroiler and Kienyeji.

I live in thika landless u want to tell me if i need like 10 chicks u cant sell for me..your condition about 50chick is unfair pliz i ask u to adjust it .
Hi Charles,
If you want 10 chicks you can collect them from the farm. We set the minimum number as 50 because they need to keep each other warm as they travel. But landless ain’t far, you can get home in time to put them in a brooder. But you’ll still have to collect then from the farm as I cant send 10 chicks.
Kind regards,
Ziwani poultry farm

Hi Sarah,
How many chicks would you want to start with and when?
Kind Regards,
Ziwani Poultry Happy Team
Am very grateful for the information, just to request if by chance a customer requires to buy 5 three weeks old chicks, kindly is it possible for you to join us so that i buy the other 5?
Hi Sarah,
Unfortunately we do not sell less than 50 chicks; Day old to 2 weeks old.
if you want to buy 5 chicks you will have to buy from 3 weeks old and above. The reason being, they need to keep each other warm as their travel and if they are below 50 chicks they will die of cold by the time they reach your home/farm.
At 3 weeks old and above they are old enough they do not need heating
Kind Regards,
Ziwani Poultry Happy Team

can kari kienyeji brood to hatch chicks by themselves or you need another hatcher?
Hi Jadiel,
Kari hardly go broody; you will get about 5 out of 100 hen that would want to sit on the eggs, and most of the time they wont go all the way till the eggs are hatched. they will loose interest half way through. But you might get some that would go all the way and be good mothers.
Kari are made to give you more eggs and that means making sure they do not waste their time sitting on eggs. While other chicken are sitting on the eggs the Kari hen is still laying. You can use our incubation service to get your eggs incubated at ksh20 per eggs.

How old should a fertilized egg be before being taken to the brooder?eg,1 month after being laid or age doesn’t matter?
Hi Peter,
It should not be more than 10 days old. We advice farmers to try their best to incubate them at 7 days (week old), but if you cant then make sure its no more than 10 days old. Hatchability drops with age.

a’m Denis Ronoh from Kericho, i want 100 1month KARI improved Kinyeji chicken. will you send it to me after paying for it or i must collect myself?
Hi Denis,
Please call us on 0708923991 for more details on how to make a booking. I think you will have to collect them as shuttle and bus services to Rift Valley, Nyanza and western region do not accept to transport unaccompanied chicks.
Many Thanks

Hi. Can the kari and kurolia chicken be reared on free range. How long then you will they start to lay eggs and be able to be ready for sale (meat)
Hi Nixon,
Yes they can be reared together as free range. The only problem I’ve noticed is that they will take time to grow because they lose alot of energy running around. You also need to make sure they get enough food because they will have eaten all the grass around in a couple of weeks.
Many Thanks

I am from Arusha Tanzania I would like to start a commercial poultry business and would like to buy 1000 kari chicken from you and also 1000 kuroiler chicken please advise me on the size of a house for 2000 chick’s. Also apart from keeping kari and kuroiler chicken do you also keep other breeds like Jersey Giants and Sussex light and other exotic birds? Thanks
Hi Katavo,
When do you want to receive the chicks? 1 chicken will requre a space of 2 sq ft, therefore a house of 2000 chicken will need to be 4000Sq ft (133.5ft by 30ft). Please visit our website and click on the Downloads page where you will find more printable advice on Chicken house and vaccination schedule.
We have other breeds but we haven’t started selling them, it will take a few more months before we start offering them to farmers. However, we have Peking ducks now for sale. The prices will be added soon on our website.
Many Thanks

hi ziwani,am happy with the will tto share information that u guys have,coz the main challenge is people are not willing to say the truth and only intrested in money.
my issue relates to the production pattern of the kari kienyeji,
1.what is the laying weight
2.period for start of laying
3.egg production per month or year
4.feed consumption in grms per day at point of lay.
kindly share the above
Please see the table below on how much feeds chick and pullets eat in a day then multiply it with the number of your chick/chicken..
Age Grams/day
1 week 15g
2 weeks 20g
3 weeks 35g
4 – 6 weeks 50g
7 – 8 weeks 60g
16 – 21 weeks 80g
Adult 100g
Just add like 10% of feeds just in case.
Please have a look at the link below to lower feed costs.

A1. Laying weight id around 1.8kgs
A2. They will start laying at around 5 months depending on how you feed them (less feeds means they will delay in starting to lay)
A3. They produce 200 – 250 eggs per year; this depends on the feeds too and also you need to remember chicken are easily stressed so you need to make sure you eliminate anything that can cause them stress (if they are stressed = stop laying = less eggs)
A4. I have added the feeds consumption above from a day old till they start laying.
KARI and Kuroilers are almost the same the only difference are the laying weight of Kuroiler whick would be over 2kgs. Also Kuroiler consume more feeds compared to KARI I would say around 15% more. In addition Kuroiler lay less eggs per year (150 – 180) and smaller eggs to KARI, although Kuroiler are bigger than KARI they produce smaller eggs; don’t ask me why, no idea.
How many Kari chicken can I keep on a 55’X20′ sleeping area with 60’X30′ open area? And do you have a buy back program i.e. can I offload my eggs thru you?
Am in Busia, I would like to buy 1000 one week old after next month, is it possible?
Hi Musundi,
Yes you can buy them from us, When exactly do you want them, do you want 1 week old Kuroiler chicks and will you be coming to collect them or do you want us to arrange transportation on your behalf?
Kind Regards,
Ziwani Poultry
