CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to identify high-quality native chickens

In modern life, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to the safety and nutritional value of food. Compared with industrialized poultry in farms, native chickens are more popular because of their natural growth environment and breeding methods. However, due to the wide variety of native chickens on the market, many people do not know how to identify high-quality native chickens. This article will introduce you to several simple and easy methods to help you choose high-quality native chickens.

Appearance characteristics

The appearance of high-quality chickens is one of the clear indicators. Normal and healthy chickens are generally well-proportioned, with neat and shiny feathers. At the same time, the color of their beaks, eyes and claws should all be healthy red or orange. Unhealthy chickens or chickens raised in poor conditions often show bad signs such as rough and messy hair, dull eyes, and dull beak and eye color.

Touch and elasticity

A good chicken should have a certain elasticity and toughness when touched. You can gently pinch the chicken's muscles. If you feel a certain elasticity and toughness, it means that the chicken has good quality. If the chicken's muscles are loose or very hard to the touch, it is likely the result of poor feeding or excessive use of hormones.

Smelling the chicken can also help us judge its quality. High-quality chicken should have no peculiar or fishy smell, but a fresh fragrance or a smell similar to fresh meat. If the chicken emits a pungent smell or a noticeable rotten smell, there may be a quality problem.

Where to buy

The purchasing channel of high-quality native chickens is also very important. You can choose some reputable specialty farms or organic agricultural product direct supply stores to buy native chickens. The native chickens from these channels generally have relevant certification marks to ensure their quality and safety. In addition, you can also buy native chickens through the recommendations of relatives and friends, which is relatively more reliable.

Through the above identification methods, I believe you have a certain understanding of how to look at native chickens. Choosing high-quality native chickens can not only ensure the safety and nutrition of food, but also support the development of farmers' planting industry.
