Looking for day-old chicks in Ejisu? Agro Prime Ghana supplies healthy day-old broiler and layer chicks, point-of-lay pullets and poultry feed to farmers in Ejisu and the surrounding towns of the Ashanti Region, delivered from our hatchery in Kasoa. We do not have a shop in Ejisu, and we do not pretend to. What we do have is a short run from Kumasi: Ejisu is about 20 km from the city, on the Kumasi–Accra highway, which makes it one of the easier Ashanti towns to supply. Ejisu farmers often want a batch they can start this week and a feed plan they can trust, without a long wait on the road. Message us with your product, quantity and exact location, and we will confirm availability, today's price and the delivery arrangement for your farm.

Why Ejisu is a practical town to supply
Ejisu is the seat of the Ejisu Municipal Assembly in the Ashanti Region, and the town lies along the Kumasi–Accra highway, the N6 trunk road that connects Ghana's second city to the capital. For a poultry buyer, that road matters in two ways. It means Ejisu is close enough to Kumasi that the market for live birds, dressed chicken and eggs is in easy reach, and it means the town sits on the same highway that carries stock between Accra and Kumasi. Because Ejisu is so much closer to Kumasi than the farther Ashanti towns, the road run is shorter, though we still confirm timing for every order.
The wider context is the same one that shapes every Ghanaian poultry farmer's decisions. Ghana consumes far more chicken than it produces. According to Poultry World's summary of USDA Foreign Agricultural Service data, national chicken consumption was around 400,000 tonnes in 2021, with imports supplying about 350,000 tonnes of that and domestic broiler output roughly 50,000 tonnes. The same report forecast demand of about 460,000 tonnes for 2022. A February 2026 report in Food Business Middle East & Africa estimated national demand at 300,000 to 460,000 tonnes a year and said imports make up 80 to 95 per cent of consumption. That article attributes its range to an agribusiness consultant, so read it as a signal of scale rather than an official count.
For an Ejisu farmer, the lesson is straightforward. Every good bird you raise competes with imported product, and the buyers who notice quality are the ones you want to keep. Strong chicks from a reliable source, fed to a plan, are how you build that reputation.
Choosing a product for your Ejisu farm
Ejisu has a mix of farm sizes, from a family flock behind the house to a purpose-built unit with several houses and a feed store. The product that fits depends on how many birds you plan, how long you can wait for eggs, and how much brooding work you want to take on. The table sets out the main options and what each one asks of you. It is deliberately without a price column: we quote prices for your product, quantity and location directly on WhatsApp.
| Your situation | Best product | What it asks of you | Why it suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small family flock or first trial batch | Day-old broiler chicks | A simple, well-built brooder and daily checks | Quick turnover, easy to learn on |
| Medium meat farm selling into Kumasi markets | Day-old broiler chicks, staggered in batches | Planned feed stock and a rolling brooding schedule | Regular sales, steady cash flow |
| Building an egg flock from scratch | Day-old layer chicks | A longer rearing period and a grower feed plan | Lowest cost per bird at the start |
| Wanting eggs within weeks | Point-of-lay pullets | Ready laying pens, nest boxes and layer mash | Skips the brooding stage |
| Already rearing and running short of feed | Poultry feed by stage | Correct stage feed for the age of your birds | Keeps growth and laying on track |
Broilers, layers and the breed question for Ejisu farms
Broilers are the most common starting point for a farm that wants quick sales. Meat birds reach market weight in roughly six to seven weeks, so a farmer can cycle capital quickly, which suits a town close to a large market. If you go this route, the breed choice matters less than how you brood and feed. Cobb 500 is widely known for its feed efficiency and Ross 308 for uniform, reliable flocks. Our Cobb 500 management notes explain what gets the best from either line.
If you are thinking about eggs, be honest with yourself about the timeline. A day-old layer flock takes months to reach lay, and it needs a grower programme and a plan for housing before the hens start. Point-of-lay pullets shorten that wait considerably. Tell us which of these you are planning and we will help you choose the right route rather than selling you the first option.
How to order day-old chicks in Ejisu
An order for Ejisu follows the same simple path as any other order, and it goes faster when you come prepared:
- 1. Message us on WhatsApp (+233 24 915 1503).
- 2. Give us the detail: product, number of birds, and your farm location, including the nearest landmark if you are off the main road.
- 3. Check the date. We confirm the next hatch or availability and the date your order can leave Kasoa.
- 4. Confirm delivery. We agree transport, delivery cost and the expected arrival time for your farm before you pay.
- 5. Get the brooder ready so the chicks go straight into a warm, dry space when they arrive.
If you want to choose your birds in person, you can book a visit to the hatchery in Kasoa. It is a practical option for Ejisu buyers who want to see the stock and talk through their plan before they commit.

Delivery to Ejisu: what to confirm
Ejisu is one of the closer destinations in the Ashanti Region, but close does not mean free or instant. Transport still costs money, and day-old chicks still need the right conditions on the road. We do not publish a delivery price for Ejisu, because the cost depends on the size of the order, the vehicle needed, and the exact location of your farm. When you message us, we will confirm the cost and the timing before you pay. We will also ask for a contact who can receive the chicks, so the batch is not left waiting at the roadside.
If your farm sits off the main highway, tell us the route. A farm reached by a feeder road can take longer than the highway suggests, and it is far better to plan that before the chicks leave Kasoa than to discover it on arrival. Our Kumasi page covers the wider Ashanti delivery process if you are weighing up a farm between Ejisu and the city.
Getting ready for chicks in Ejisu
Most early losses in a batch come from a brooder that was not ready, not from a poor chick. Before delivery day, clean and dry the house, check the heat source, spread fresh litter, and set out feeders and drinkers at the height the chicks can reach. Keep the house free from draughts but with enough ventilation to remove ammonia. Put the starter feed in the house before the chicks arrive, so they eat within the first hours.
The first weeks matter most, so read our guide on how to choose healthy day-old chicks to know what to look for when they arrive, and check the broiler feeding notes in our broiler feeding guide so the feed stays on schedule. Layer flocks need the layer feeding guide as well, since the nutrition needs change as the birds grow towards lay.
Honest pricing guidance for Ejisu buyers
You will not find a price list on this page, and that is deliberate. Prices change with breed, product, season, order size and feed costs, and a figure printed today would be wrong by next month. What we can tell you is what drives the total. Larger orders usually cost less per bird. Transport is a fixed cost that is spread across more birds in a bigger order. Compare the total cost of the batch, including feed and the heat you will spend in the brooder, rather than the price per chick alone. The cheapest chick is not the cheapest batch if it dies in the first week.
Why buy from a working hatchery
We are a working poultry hatchery in Kasoa, not a middleman buying chicks and reselling them. That gives Ejisu buyers a direct line to the people managing the flock, so questions about hatch dates, product and handling go straight to the source. If you are planning a bigger operation rather than a single batch, our partner and investment page explains how we work with people who want to build a poultry business.
The bottom line
Ejisu is close to Kumasi, sits on the Accra–Kumasi highway, and has a steady demand for poultry that rewards good birds. Pick the product that fits your plan, prepare the brooder and feed before delivery, and order through WhatsApp so we can confirm the price, the date and the delivery to your farm.
