Difficulty of finding good location 好地难求

Nowadays more and more BHs are being built up everywhere, and size of BH is getting bigger and bigger. Swiftlet farming competition is getting intense especially in the hot swifltet farming zone.

I always think that location is a very key factor to successful BH. Other factors like design, sound, micro habitat etc you can still perfect it later if you didn’t make it the best at the first place. But you can never shift your BH to other place once started and investment put on. Late comer should be very cautious in their investment, never do a blind investment.

I headed to south to help Mr. P to do a site survey and assessment last couple of days. His old shoplot located far from town, a two and half storey corner lot currently empty in 1st and 2nd floor, ground floor being used for printing workshop with small operation, very ideal location for swiflet farming I rate for it. There is a wide orchard in next, many birds would be hunting for food here everyday, only one row of old shoplot was built in this area and none existing BH operating in this area yet. This is a very prime location many swiftlet farmers and investors are hunting for.

We conducted a call test at 6pm for 20mins, more than 200 birds responded to the test. Mr. P was excited to the result, he can’t wait but wanted to start renovation immediately. I made arrangement for workers and materials immediately, target to complete this project within 2-3weeks.

如今越来越多的燕屋正在建立而且无处不有，燕屋规模也越来越大。养燕的竞争因此越来越激烈，尤其是在养燕热区。

我一直都认为，位置是一个非常成功燕屋的关键因素。其它如设计，音响，燕屋条件等其他因素，如果你没能在开始时做到最好，你仍然可以后再之补救或提升。但你无法改变你燕屋的位置一旦投资上了。后来投资者应非常谨慎，切勿盲目投资。

我过去几天南下，帮助P先生做了现场评估。他的老店屋位置远离城市，一栋两层半店屋，目前在第一和二楼空置，底楼用于小规模印刷操作，我认为这是非常理想的地点。其旁边是一片果园，每天都有许多燕子在这里觅食，这里只有一排店屋而且目前没有其他竞争。这类优越养燕的地段是许多燕农和投资者都在寻找的。

我们在下午6点进行了20分钟的测试，有两百多只燕子对测试反应。 P先生很兴奋，他不能再等待，要立即开始工程。我立即安排工人和材料，期于两三周内完成这个工程。
