I am from the northeast, I don't know about other places, but in our northeast, red, color, white and black are the most popular roosters; There are many colors, so we call it Flower Rooster. Among these roosters, the red rooster has the most tender meat, compact meat and very high nutritional value. Chicken stewed mushrooms, a famous dish in Northeast China, is very famous. Of course, this dish is not all big cocks, but also hens. It is only based on the needs of consumers to decide whether to use hens or cocks.
I believe there are many kinds of roosters in our country, so why do you say local roosters are the best? As I said above, by the same token, domestic animals are the same. Local breeds, local soil and water climate, supplemented by nutritional feeding, then the meat fed by such chickens is only very delicious, and the nutritional value is also very high; It is also very suitable for local tastes.
Of course, it is also possible to raise some other kinds of chickens that are not local, but such breeds are expensive to raise and slow to take effect, which seems uneconomical compared with local chickens; Moreover, there is a time period for this variety to adapt to the local soil and water and climate. If it is carefully cultivated and properly raised, there will be basically no loss, but the benefits will be relatively reduced. On the contrary, if it is careless or improperly fed, there may be a large number of deaths, which will have great economic losses for farmers.
In China, chicken raising is not just emerging, it has been emerging for many years, and the technology is very mature. In the case of free-range chicken, the investment is relatively large, so if possible, we should try to raise local chickens.
