what is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? Why do chicken vendors repeatedly trick city people into succeeding?

as the saying goes, "amateurs watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway", so does raising chickens. In recent years, with the continuous development of society, people's living standards are improving day by day, so many people in the city no longer want to eat farmed broilers, but eat more free-range chickens in the countryside.

Because this native chicken is free-range, and they eat grain and worms, the taste of this native chicken is naturally delicious. But generally speaking, "every bird will have it when the Woods are big", because some chicken dealers "can't afford to get up early without profit", they disguise some chickens raised in sheds as farm chickens and then sell them to consumers in the city. And when the city people buy it home and make chicken, they know they have been cheated. So what is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? < P >? Why do chicken dealers often cajole the city people into presenting? Plum will answer.

Because Plum is a rural person, and has been breeding broilers, laying hens, hemp chickens and native chickens for many years, I will talk about the most obvious signs of the native chicken for your reference:

What is the native chicken? The so-called native chicken means that farmers buy chickens from chicken vendors outside in spring, then feed them with coarse grains or wild vegetables and bugs, and grow them in autumn after feeding for half a year.

Generally speaking, the native chickens fed by farmers grow very slowly because they are not fed with feed and there are varieties. Most farm chickens are fed in spring, then bred for seven or eight months, and sold in autumn and winter or at the end of the year. At this time, the peasant chicken has a small hind paw, which is also easy to distinguish. Let me talk about the distinguishing method of peasant chicken:

From the appearance:

1. From the head, this peasant chicken is not very big. It doesn't grow to 5~7 kg like Ma chicken, but the adult chicken is about 3.5~4 kg. If someone sells more than 5 kg of "native chicken" in the market, it may be a native chicken or a hemp chicken raised in a shed, because it is impossible for ordinary people to have such a big native chicken without feeding feed.

2. From the appearance: From the appearance, there is another remarkable sign that the chicken feathers are very complete, shiny and smooth, and very beautiful. This is because the native chicken has changed its feathers and become an adult chicken after feeding for 8~1 months. If people in the city see some native chickens with incomplete feathers in the market, even if the "native chicken" weighs enough, it is not a peasant chicken.

3. Look at the toes of the native chicken: When an experienced chicken dealer buys the native chicken, it is necessary to look at the toes of the native chicken, while a normal chicken has four toes, which is a sign that the chicken has not yet matured. With the increase of the native chicken's age, after 8~1 months, the toe behind the native chicken protrudes, and the toe behind it is called "pedaling claw" by our rural people. Generally speaking, the longer the "kicking claw" is, the older the chicken is, and the older the chicken is, the more expensive it will be. Generally, the old chicken is 2~3 yuan a catty.

4. See if the chicken mouth of the native chicken is complete: The most remarkable feature of the chicken raised in the shed and the native chicken is to look at the chicken mouth. Because native chickens are fierce and aggressive animals, especially some small cocks need to fight for a long time after they grow into big chickens, and under the struggle, the feathers on chickens are naturally incomplete.

In order to prevent the chickens from fighting, some greenhouse chicken farmers cut off the chickens' mouths when they are 1 days old, so as to prevent them from fighting with each other and losing their feathers. Therefore, when people in the city go to buy native chicken, they must check whether the mouth of the purchased native chicken is complete. The more pointed the chicken, the greater the possibility of becoming a native chicken, because farmers have no time to cut the mouth of the native chicken.

From the chicken:

From the chicken, the chicken of farm-raised native chicken is very strong, because the free-range farm-raised native chicken will exercise regularly. From the appearance of chicken, the chickens of broilers and native chickens raised in sheds are pale, while the chicken fed by farmers is pale yellow. This is because the chickens fed quickly have not reached a certain age.

when the chicken is opened, there is a layer of yellow chicken oil in the abdominal cavity and thigh of the chicken fed by the farmer. The older the hen, the more chicken oil it has. The chickens raised in sheds naturally do not have this layer of yellow chicken oil. Therefore, because the local chicken is strong and has the characteristics of fat, and the meat of the feed chicken is soft and fat-free, people in the city should also pay attention when buying local chicken. If you find loose chicken or white chicken, don't buy it, because it is not a farmer's chicken.

Then why does the chicken vendor succeed in cajoling the city people?

My uncle is a chicken vendor. Let me talk about how he cajoles the city people:

My uncle also needs to look at people when he sells local chicken. Generally speaking, his perennial customers want local chicken, but he still sells real local chicken to him, because most of the old customers are restaurant owners and know a lot about local chicken.

But after meeting some customers who think they know very well, the second uncle will sell some eliminated breeders in the farm to them. Because the cock in the farm has a long "paw" and bright feathers, it looks like a peasant chicken. But generally speaking, the breeder cocks eliminated from this farm are easy to distinguish from the farm chickens, that is, they are relatively big, but this customer doesn't know. They only think that the chickens with long "paws" are local chickens.

not only that, but when Uncle Wang meets some customers who are even more ignorant or young, he will sell the chickens raised in the shed to them. Because these customers don't know what "kicking claws" are, as long as the feathers are beautiful. Therefore, the second uncle has repeatedly deceived some consumers in the city in this way. To sum up:

Above, I introduced the distinctive signs of peasant chicken, and how to identify peasant chicken. So how can people in the city buy authentic farm chicken? I think it is best for people in the city to go to rural farmers' homes to buy local chicken, instead of buying it from some chicken dealers. Only in this way can we prevent some fake native chickens from entering the hands of the city.

Now, the native chickens that are really sold in rural areas are basically out of sight. Even if it's free-range, it's basically necessary to feed it, and sometimes it's even necessary to get some needles. Otherwise, it's always a little painful to raise it and raise it to death, right?

So, if you can buy this kind of free-range chicken in the city, it's already Amitabha. The quality of this kind of chicken is not bad, and the fresh boiled chicken tastes quite good. But more vegetable vendors fool you with the elimination of laying hens and tell you that they are old hens, which is a bit heartless.

However, if you have relatives in the countryside, it's actually not difficult to eat native chicken. Every new year, I go back to my mother-in-law's house. Her hometown is in the deep ravine of Bazhong, Sichuan. Everything is original and natural. It is not too simple to eat a native chicken.

In normal times, my mother-in-law will kill the native chicken, and then put ice cubes on it for express delivery. Plus, my dad has a relative here who keeps native chickens in the mountains south of Luoyang, and from time to time he brings two to eat. So after eating too much these years, it is easy to tell the difference between real chicken and fake chicken. First, although chicken is white meat, the redder the chicken, the better the quality.

It can be seen that the muscles of this native chicken are very red and the fat is golden and shiny. It looks particularly fresh and healthy. So if we buy the chicken that deceives you, it depends on whether its muscles are dark red and whether its chicken oil is golden yellow.

In addition, the real chicken skin is relatively thin, and the subcutaneous fat is also relatively thin. Second, pinch the chicken leg.

Real native chickens are pheasants. They don't eat food in cages all day. Their meat is very tight. So you'd better pinch the chicken leg and breast when you buy it. The harder it is, the better the quality of this chicken will be. Third, look at chicken feet.

The chicken feet of the pheasant are always skin and bones, especially thin. Moreover, cocks generally have flying claws. The longer the flying claws of chickens, the longer they will be kept.

and the hen will always be an old lady with little feet. Chicken feet are thin and short, skinny. And dry.

But whether it is a cock or a hen, because it needs to keep digging and walking, it also needs claws to lock the branches to stand when it is high. Plus, they still fight with each other, so chicken toenails are very sharp. Fourth, look at the chicken mouth.

chickens in captivity usually have their mouths cut off or ironed. So if you see a chicken with a mouth injury and the injury is relatively flat, it can't be a native chicken. Because chickens are free-range, they usually have to grind their mouths on the ground, so their mouths are very sharp. Fifth, look at the size.

if a bunch of chickens are almost the same size, don't buy them. It can't be true. Because native chickens mainly rely on nature to find food, some eat more and some eat less, even if they are of the same species, they can't be similar in size. So you see, any group of local chickens are big and small, right?

The above are the five main indicators to distinguish native chickens from laying hens. Of course, native chickens are generally not too big, and the biggest ones are only five or six pounds. Those that weigh eight or nine pounds are generally fake. And even if it is true, it will be old and firewood, and there is basically nothing to eat.

Hello, I'm Sister Zheng next door, an elder sister who likes to share delicious food with you and cook different delicious foods with simple ingredients.

Today, I am very happy to answer, "What is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? Why do chicken vendors repeatedly deceive people in the city to succeed? " To tell the truth, there are very few farm chickens now. Most people in rural areas buy chickens in front of the house and raise them freely, so the chickens taste much better than those kept in chicken farms, and they are still different from real chickens.

The real chicken is small and grows slowly. Generally, the hen weighs about 2-3 kg, and the rooster weighs about 3-4 kg. The chicken meat is relatively compact, and the color of the chicken is different. The chicken skin is yellowish and the meat is dark red. The stewed chicken soup tastes very good, fresh but not greasy, and the chicken is fresh, fragrant and tender. Native chicken has slender feet, a small tip and a short comb.

As for the foreign chicken, it is different. Because of the variety problem, it grows very fast and is also big. Generally, the weight of the foreign chicken hen is 4-5 Jin, and the weight of the cock is 7-8 Jin. Due to the short captivity time, the meat quality is lax, the taste is poor and the smell is heavy; The foreign chicken skin is slightly white and the meat is light red; The foreign chicken has thick feet, a round head and a high crown.

Why do chicken vendors always succeed in cajoling city people? Because people in the city have never raised chickens, they don't know how to identify them. As for the variety of chickens, they don't even know, especially the kind of free-range chickens, which look like native chickens. It's really difficult to distinguish between true and false native chickens without looking carefully. However, in recent years, people in the city have also learned to be smart. Anyone who wants to eat real chicken goes directly to the farmer's house to buy it, which is much more expensive than the market price, but it is genuine.

what is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? Why do chicken vendors repeatedly trick city people into succeeding?

there is a clear difference between the chickens that are really free-range and not fed in the farm and the chickens that are fed in the chicken farm. But this can only be distinguished by farmers who have really raised chickens. In the eyes of experts, the difference is obvious, but in the eyes of laymen, it is impossible to distinguish. It is the expert who watches the doorway and the layman who watches the excitement.

There are also differences in free-range chickens raised by farmers. Raising a few chickens is not for the purpose of selling money, so the chickens raised by farmers are real chickens. (1) Basically, they don't feed, but only natural foods such as sorghum, wheat, leftovers and diced cabbage. (2) Under normal circumstances, chickens are free-range in front of the house and feed on their own.

The other one is that there are more farmers, and farmers occasionally feed them. Chickens fed with feed grow fatter and faster. Such a profitable purpose, although it is also free-range, is not a pure farm chicken. There is a slight difference between the above two kinds of native chickens, not that experts can't tell them apart.

There are obvious differences between farm chickens and feed-fed broilers: (1) In terms of body shape, farm chickens are fed with natural food. Without hormone, the growth is slow. Small size, light weight, not very fat. (2) According to the cockscomb, the cockscomb is dark red, thin and not fat. (3) From the chicken feet, the chicken feet of farm chickens are relatively thin, unlike the chicken feet fed with feed, which feel meaty. (4) From the chicken's mouth, farm chickens often forage in the wild, and the chicken's mouth is sharper than that raised by feed. You can go to the countryside to see how chickens often grind their mouths left and right when they are foraging in the wild. Therefore, the mouth of the peasant chicken is absolutely sharp.

since there are so many differences, why do chicken vendors deceive city people to succeed? The reason is attributed to ignorance and amateurs. Few people in the city raise chickens, and they don't know the difference between native chickens and broilers. Naturally, they are fooled by articulate chicken vendors and are willing to be fooled.

In short, there are differences between native chickens and broilers, but laymen can't tell them apart. With so many chickens together, it is really difficult for city dwellers who have never raised chickens to tell them apart, so that they are often fooled.

It's not easy to distinguish the farm chickens from the surface, because many of them are free-range chickens now, but the chickens eat feed and have the same amount of exercise, which is basically no different from the chickens.

The real native chicken eats whole grains and runs all over the mountain without feed. This kind of native chicken is hard to buy in the market, because its growth is slow, it is not worthwhile to eat whole grains, and farmers will not breed it on a large scale, so they only keep what they eat and rarely sell it specially.

The meat quality of real native chicken is relatively tight, just like the athletes' muscles are very tight, not fat meat. You can't tell from this. You can pinch the chicken's thighs with your hands to see if it is hard to feel. The chicken's mouth is hard and smooth, because it is easy to grind the shield by cutting dirt and worms on the mountain. Chicken feet are also relatively shields. It is often hard to grasp the soil and reverse the foot. The grinding shield is harder than smooth. The feathers of native chickens are also smooth and shiny, just like the feathers of birds are tight and smooth, and the cockscomb is red and bright. There is also the chicken skin that clings to the chicken and turns yellow after the chicken is depilated. When the chicken is broken and turned yellow, it is more compact, and there is sand in the chicken belly. The chicken will often eat some sand when running around the mountains. The stewed soup is fragrant and golden yellow.

Not all native chickens have sharp feet and mouths. When they eat enough feed, they won't look for food any more, and they don't have enough exercise. Feathers are not tight and dull, and it doesn't grow even when it eats feed for a long time. After hair removal, the chicken is not compact and white, and there is no sand in the chicken belly. The stewed soup is not yellow, clear and watery, and has no smell of chicken. Chicken dealers have repeatedly used feed chickens as native chickens to trick city people, but in fact they are bullying city people for money.
