The differences between broiler chickens and ordinary chickens are as follows:

Broilers and ordinary chickens are first of all different in size. Broilers generally refer to broiler chickens that are about 7 weeks old and weigh 2 kilograms, while ordinary chickens are much larger than broiler chickens. Secondly, there is the difference in crowing. Broilers generally don't crow, while cocks in ordinary chickens do. Finally, there is the difference in meat quality. The meat quality of broilers is tender than that of ordinary chickens.

In the fifth year of Xianfeng, Qing Dynasty, Ma Youren, a descendant of the founder of Tong Ji, returned to Kaifeng, his hometown, and brought back a barrel of century-old "old soup". Later, Ma Yuxing Tong Ji Store was established in Kaifeng. Ma Yuxing Broiler has won the championship every year since 1982. In the appraisal held by the Ministry of Commerce in 1984, it won the title of ministerial-level quality product with the first total score. It is indispensable for Henan Province to entertain domestic and foreign guests.

Broiler chicken is also called bucket chicken. These two different names illustrate its two characteristics: to make this chicken, you must use a new chicken hatched in that year, which is also called chicken or broiler chicken, so bucket chicken has become its first name.

About the origin of chicken in our country, some resources say that it was introduced from India. This incorrect statement may be influenced by Darwin. Because Darwin said in his book "Variation of Animals and Plants at Home": "In India, the domestication of chickens was completed at the time of Manu Code, about 12 BC, but some people think it was only in 8 BC."

In another part of the book, Darwin declared according to an encyclopedia of China: "Chickens are western animals, which were introduced to the East (referring to China) in a dynasty before 14 BC." Darwin did not mention the title of China Encyclopedia in his book, but said it was published in 169, and in another part of the book it was published in 1596.

Compendium of Materia Medica, which was praised by the west as "the encyclopedia of ancient China", was published in 1596, but there is no record about it in the book.

In 169, the only famous China "kind book" was "Three Tales", in which there was a description about chickens: "There are various kinds of chickens in Sichuan, Shandong and, and the Yue chicken is small, the Shu chicken is big, and the Lu chicken is especially big. It is old to say that there are chickens in Japan and China. "Daming was born in the east of Jixi, so chickens entered it."

In fact, China domestic chickens are domesticated from pheasants, and there are many excellent breeds, among which Jiujin Huang and Langshan Chicken are very famous. Chicken is an indispensable food in people's daily life because of its high nutritional value, various methods and delicate taste.
