Previously Briefly News wrote about a local businessman who had social media users buzzing after sharing some pretty cool 'then vs. now' snaps.

The poultry farmer has been collecting his eggs since 2017 and in that short time, he has managed to more than quadruple his output.

Heading online, farmer @terrymap1 shared the inspirational pictures.

"I went from picking 7 eggs a day to hundreds per day. This is my full-time job," he captioned the post.

Many other small-scale farmers were inspired to see what a success the young man had made of his business in only four short years.
