Marijan Skvorc started poultry farming in 2004 when he built a 25K head broiler house. After 10 years of successful business, he added another house in 2018, growing total bird capacity to over 50K chickens.

He installed watering lines and feed lines, radiant brooders, and other VAL-CO products in his houses. So far, he has been very satisfied with old GainTrac and new Ventra Pro Controller. The watering line and nipple drinkers work well. The feed pans are great for birds of all ages and as a result of using the VAL-CO system, we’ve achieved a feed conversion rate of 1.51.

Marijan has a recipe for success. He says growers must always be present on the farm and regularly check equipment. Cleanliness is very important so it should be maintained at a high level. To be successful in poultry business. Little things can make a big difference and impact the final result. You have to be hardworking and dedicated to work.

VAL-CO has developed a double anti-roost wire for it’s watering systems following recent inquiries from the poultry industry. The system is aimed for breeder production, where shocking wires are no longer permitted, and for farms that raise the males from layer production no longer culled in the hatcheries.

The system is an addition to the VAL-CO nipple drinking system and can also be used with the BigTom turkey drinker system and other watering systems. As can be expected from VAL-CO, the system is a strong and durable solution allowing farmers making money cost-effectively and without any problems for years to come.
