Poultry farming in Kenya is a widespread occupation. It is mostly practiced on a small-scale, and predominantly for domestic consumption.

Poultry farming is the raising of domesticated birds such as chickens, turkeys, ducks, and geese, producing meat and eggs.[1] In the event of frequent food shortages and fluctuating prices, some farmers have embraced commercial methods.
