What is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? Why do chicken vendors often trick city people into succeeding? As the saying goes, "amateurs watch the excitement and 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 city people no longer want to eat farmed broilers, but eat more free-range chickens in rural areas.

Because this native chicken is free-range, and they eat grain and insects, the taste of this native chicken is naturally delicious. But on the whole, "there will be any kind of birds 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. When the city people bought it home to be a chicken, they realized that they had been cheated. So what is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken?

So what? Why do chicken dealers often trick city people into being present? Plum will answer.

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

What is a farm chicken? The so-called farm chicken is the chicken that farmers buy from the outside chicken dealers in spring, and then feed the whole grains or wild vegetables and insects, and grow up in the autumn of half a year.

Generally speaking, the chickens raised by farmers grow slowly because they are not fed with feed and have varieties. Most farm chickens are fed in spring, then raised 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 "kicking claw", which is also easy to distinguish. Let me talk about the way to distinguish farm chickens:

Distinguish from appearance:

1. In terms of size, this kind of farm chicken is not very big. Unlike pheasants, which grow to 5~7 kg, adult chickens are about 3.5~4 kg, and slightly older cocks may reach 4.5~5 kg. If someone sells more than 5 kg of "native chicken" in the market, it may be native chicken or hemp chicken raised in the shed, because it is impossible for ordinary people to have such a big native chicken without feeding feed.

2. From the appearance point of view: From the appearance point of view, there is another remarkable sign that chicken feathers are very complete, shiny and smooth, and very beautiful. This is because after 8~ 10 months of feeding, the chicken feathers have changed and become adult chickens. If the city people see some chicken with incomplete feathers in the market, even if the "chicken" weighs enough, it is not a farm chicken.

3. Look at the toes of the native chicken: When an experienced chicken dealer buys native chicken, he should look at the toes of the native chicken, while a normal chicken has four toes, which is a sign that the chicken is not yet mature. With the increase of native chicken's age, after 8~ 10 months old, the toe behind the native chicken protrudes, and the toe behind it is called "kicking claw" by our rural people. Generally speaking, the longer the "kicking claw", the older the chicken, and the more expensive the older the chicken. Generally, a catty of old chicken is 20~30 yuan.

4. Look at whether the chicken's beak is complete: One of the most striking features of raising chickens in sheds and farmhouses is to look at the chicken's beak. Because native chickens are fierce and aggressive animals, especially some small cocks need long-term struggle after they grow into big chickens. Under the struggle, the feathers on chickens are naturally incomplete.

However, in order to prevent chickens from fighting, some greenhouse chicken farmers cut off their mouths with beak cutters when chickens are 10 days old, so as to prevent chickens from fighting with each other and losing hair. Therefore, when people in the city go to buy local chicken, they must check whether the mouth of the purchased local chicken is complete. The sharper the chicken, the greater the possibility of becoming a native chicken, because farmers don't have time to cut the mouth of the native chicken.

Different from chicken:

As far as chicken is concerned, the chicken of farmed chicken is very strong, because farmed chicken will exercise regularly. From the appearance of chickens, chickens raised by broilers and chicken houses are light yellow, while chickens raised by farmers are light yellow. This is because the fast-fed chickens have not yet reached a certain age.

After 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 an old hen is, the more chicken oil she has. The chickens raised in the shed naturally do not have this layer of yellow chicken oil. Therefore, because the native chicken is strong and fat, and the feed chicken is soft and fat-free, people in the city should also pay attention to buying native chicken. If you find scattered chickens or white chickens, don't buy them, because they are not farm chickens.

So why do chicken vendors often trick city people into success?

My second uncle is a chicken seller. Let me tell you how he coaxed the city people:

Uncle has to look at people when selling local chicken. Generally speaking, his regular customers come to ask for local chicken all the year round, but uncle will still sell him the real local chicken, because most regular customers are restaurant owners and know the local chicken very well.

However, after meeting some customers who think they know very well, the second uncle will sell some breeders eliminated from the farm to them. Because the rooster on the farm has long claws 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 chickens in the farm, which is relatively large, but this customer doesn't know. They only think that chickens with "claws" are native chickens.

Not only that, my uncle will also sell chickens to some unfamiliar customers or young customers, and then he will sell them chickens raised in the shed. Because these customers don't know what "kicking claws" are, as long as the feathers are beautiful. Therefore, the second uncle has deceived some consumers in the city many times in this way.

To sum up: I have introduced the distinguishing signs of farm chickens and how to identify farm chickens. So how can people in the city buy authentic farm chicken? I think it's better for city people to buy local chickens from rural farmers' homes instead of some chicken dealers. Only in this way can we prevent some fake chickens from flowing into the hands of cities.

Now the chickens that are really sold in the countryside are basically invisible. Even if it is free-range, it is basically to be fed, and sometimes it even takes a few injections. Otherwise, it's always a little painful to raise it until it dies, right?

Therefore, if you can buy this kind of free-range chicken in the city, it is already Amitabha. The quality of this kind of chicken is not bad, and the fresh boiled chicken tastes 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 China, it is not difficult to eat native chicken. Every new year, I go back to my mother-in-law's house. Her hometown is in a deep ditch in Bazhong, Sichuan. Everything is primitive and natural. Eating a native chicken is not easy.

Usually, my mother-in-law will kill the native chicken and then put ice cubes on it to show it. In addition, my father has a relative who keeps native chickens in the mountains south of Luoyang and brings two to eat from time to time. So after eating too much these years, it's easy to tell the difference between a real chicken and a fake chicken.

First, although chicken is white meat, the redder the chicken, the better the quality. You can see 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 a chicken that cheats you, it depends on whether its muscles are dark red and its chicken oil is golden yellow.

In addition, the real chicken skin is thinner and the subcutaneous fat is thinner.

Second, clip the chicken leg. Real chickens are pheasants, and they are not kept in cages all day to eat vegetables. The meat is particularly 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.

Third, look at the chicken feet. Pheasant's chicken feet are always skin and bones, especially thin. And cocks usually have flying claws. The longer the chicken's flying claws, the longer it will be kept.

On the other hand, the hen is always an old lady with little feet. Chicken feet are thin and short, skinny. And drying.

However, whether it is a cock or a hen, because they need to keep digging and walking, they also need claws to lock branches in high places to stand. Plus fighting with each other, so the chicken toenails are very sharp.

Fourth, look at the chicken mouth. Chickens in captivity are usually cut off or ironed. So if you see a chicken with a broken mouth and the wound 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 about the same size, don't buy them. This 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 the same species, they can't be about the same size. So you see, any group of local chickens is big and small, right?

The above are the five main indicators to distinguish native chickens and eliminate laying hens. Of course, the chicken is generally not too big, and the biggest one is five or six pounds. Eight or nine pounds are generally fake. And even if it is true, it is old wood, and there is basically nothing to eat.

Hello, everyone, I am sister Zheng next door, a sister who likes to share delicious food with you and make different delicious food with simple ingredients.

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

The real native chicken is small and grows slowly. Generally, hens weigh about 2-3 kg, and cocks weigh about 3-4 kg. The meat quality of native chicken is tight, and the color of chicken is different. The chicken skin is light yellow and the meat is deep red. Chicken stew is delicious, fresh but not greasy, and the chicken is delicious and tender. Chicken feet are slender, pointed and short.

As for foreign chickens, it is different. Because of the variety problem, it grows fast and big. Foreign chickens and hens are generally 4-5 kg, and cocks are 7-8 kg. Because of the short captivity time, the meat is loose, 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, round head and high crown.

Why do chicken sellers always succeed in cajoling city people? Because people in the city have never raised chickens, I don't know how to identify them. As for the variety of chicken, they don't even know, especially the kind that is free-range, which looks like native chicken. It's really hard to tell the difference between true and false chickens without looking carefully. But in recent years, city people have also learned to be smart. Whoever 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 often trick city people into succeeding?

There are obvious differences between chickens that are really free-range and are not fed by farmers and chickens that are fed with feed in chicken farms. 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. The doorkeeper is an expert, but the bystander is a layman.

There are also differences in free-range chickens raised by farmers. Raising a few chickens is not to sell money. The chickens raised by such farmers are all real chickens. (1) basically does not feed, but only eats natural foods such as sorghum, wheat, leftovers and diced Chinese cabbage. (2) Under normal circumstances, chickens are free-range at home and feed on their own.

The other is to raise more, and farmers occasionally feed. Chickens fed with feed grow fat and fast. Although the purpose of making money like this is also free-range, it is not a pure peasant chicken. The above two kinds of native chickens are slightly different, not that experts can't tell them apart.

The obvious difference between farm chickens and feed-fed broilers lies in the difference of (1) body shape. The chickens on the farm are fed with natural food. Without hormones, growth is slow. Small size, light weight, not very fat. (2) According to the comb, the comb is dark red, thin but not fat. (3) From the chicken feet, the chicken feet of farm chickens are relatively thin, unlike those fed with feed, and they feel fleshy. (4) Judging from the chicken's mouth, farm chickens often forage in the wild, and the chicken's mouth is sharper than that of feed. You can go to the countryside to see how chickens often grind their teeth 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 repeatedly trick city people into succeeding? The reason comes down to ignorance and amateurs. Few people in the city raise chickens, and they don't know the difference between native chickens and broilers. Naturally, I was fooled by a glib chicken vendor and was 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.

On the surface, the farm chicken menu is not so good, because many of them are free-range chickens now, but chickens eat feed and exercise the same amount, which is basically no different from chickens.

The real native chicken eats whole grains and runs all over the mountain without feed. It is difficult to buy such native chicken in the market, because the native chicken grows slowly, it is not cost-effective to eat whole grains, and farmers will not breed it on a large scale, so they will keep it for themselves and eat a lot, and few of them are specially sold.

Real chicken is tight, just like athletes' muscles are tight, not fat. You can't see this. You can pinch the thigh of the chicken with your hand to see if it is hard. The chicken's mouth is hard and slippery, because it is easy to grind a shield by cutting dirt and bugs on the mountain. Chicken feet are also relatively shield. It is often difficult to catch the soil and go against the feet. The abrasive cover is harder than smooth. The feathers of native chickens are 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 sticking to the chicken, which turns yellow after depilation. When the chicken is broken and turns yellow, it is more compact, and there is sand in the chicken's stomach. Chickens often eat some sand when they run in the mountains. The stew is fragrant and golden.

Not native chickens have sharp feet and mouths. When it is full of feed, it stops looking for food. The activity is small, the chicken is not tight and lacks exercise. Feathers are not tight and dull, and will not grow even if they eat feed for a long time. After depilation, the chicken is not compact and white, and there is no sand in the chicken's stomach. The stewed soup is not yellow, clear as water, and has no smell of chicken.

Chicken dealers repeatedly use feed chickens as local chickens to deceive city dwellers, but in fact they are bullying city dwellers with more money and less knowledge. There is a 60-year-old chicken dealer outside the main entrance of our community, who used feed chickens to trick the owners of the community and succeeded repeatedly. Although she is very old, her brain is faster than anyone else. Our community is not a high-end community, and the property management is also very loose. The security guards are all uncles around 50 years old. Order management is naturally not strict, and take-out is dispensable. There are a group of elderly villagers nearby who sell vegetables near the main entrance of the community for a living all the year round. Community residents love to buy the vegetables they sell. Since the price of pork increased, there was an old aunt who was about 60 years old. She pulls a few "chickens" outside the community by bike every day and sells them every day. The residents of the community are basically city people, and most of them are treasure mothers. They have never experienced rural life and don't know how to distinguish native chickens. They saw that there were rural elderly people selling vegetables at the entrance of the community, so they came to sell live chickens and sold them one after another. The old aunt is also very good at camouflage. First of all, I don't know if she is a rural villager, but she really looks like a villager.

Wearing a hat, simple clothes, a pair of rubber shoes that have been mended several times, a big bottle of water hanging from the front of the car, and a heavy iron weight in a portable woven basket, he speaks loose Mandarin and uses his hometown dialect instead of what he doesn't understand, much like a rural person. The old woman is very clever. She put some vegetable leaves, some dried corn kernels and a little rice in the chicken house for the chickens to peck at. When the family chefs in the community saw it, they all thought it was a native chicken. Besides, grandma is very talkative. She also told these precious mothers that her chickens were raised in the countryside and ate rice and corn bran. You see, the coat color is very bright, and all chickens are heavy-handed, and they will peck people when caught.

She is also very business-minded. One chicken weighs a kilo in 25 yuan, and two chickens weigh a kilo in 22 yuan. These people basically buy two chickens at a time, and the old woman sells them out quickly every time. Once I heard someone ask her, you come here to sell chickens every day. Are there really so many chickens in your family? Grandma replied that many people in the village raised chickens, and many elderly people in the village asked me to help them sell the chickens, and then I gave them money when I sold them. In short, I don't know if the soil is not soil, but I have to admire her business thinking, which is really more profitable than selling vegetables.

In fact, many people in the city have been cheated by chicken dealers many times. In fact, they don't know the characteristics of rural chickens. Next, I will tell you what is the symbol of rural chicken and how to choose real chicken.

What are the signs of rural chickens? 1, the soles of chicken feet are very thick. Chickens in rural areas are basically free-range chickens and local chickens, and they have a wide range of activities every day. Everyone knows that the environment in rural areas is basically dirty and messy. The soles of the feet will be thick and dirty all year round, and some chickens will have thick black spots on their soles, which is a unique feature of rural chickens. Chickens in feed chicken farms are restricted from their birth, and even the henhouse is managed every day, and the ground is clean, so the ground of feed chicken feet is very thin and there is no black skin.

2, the ankle spikes are obviously prominent. It takes a long time for rural chickens to be slaughtered. At least one year, the spikes in the ankles of chickens will grow slowly with the age of chickens. Whether it is a rooster or a hen, there will be obvious spikes, which is also the characteristic of rural chickens. Feed chickens in farms will not be kept for that long, because time is money for them. If they can come out, they will come out without delay.

3. The comb is long and the color is deep red. The comb will grow longer with the increase of chicken age. In the countryside, chickens eat worms. These trace elements make the comb darker and more beautiful. They don't want to feed the comb, but it is light red.

Conclusion: Don't believe the tout of chicken dealers when choosing rural chickens. There is an old saying that "an old woman sells melons and boasts herself". We still choose rural chickens according to the three methods I mentioned above, and they are not necessarily chickens with smooth feathers. Many chicken dealers take bright chicken feathers as an example. Many chicken feathers in the countryside are not very bright.

Born in the countryside, I have been feeding chickens since childhood, and I know chickens like the back of my hand.

In the past, chickens were hatched at home, and they were really not fed at all from birth to slaughter. Snack: a mixture of corn flour, insects, grass seeds and vegetable leaves. Are free-range. At that time, the chicken was not big, weighing more than three kilograms. Both cock and hen have black feet. A stew, a yard smelled the fragrance, chicken soup covered with Huang Liang oil, very fragrant.

Later, I began to buy chickens that had just hatched. After the chicken is raised, its feet are yellow, and the cock weighs eight or nine pounds. Hens mainly have black feet, yellow feet, black hair and yellow hair, and some of them weigh more than five kilograms. They are still free-range, and they have never eaten feed. A pot of stew is delicious, and one chicken in a family can enjoy it.

Now chickens are sold only when they are raised to more than a catty. When they are bought back, they need to buy some feed to gradually change their eating habits. Mainly roosters, hens who want to lay eggs, buy Hainan white. The cock's crown and thigh are very long, weighing more than eight kilograms, and its taste is more than one grade higher than that of feed chicken. However, it can't find the feeling of eating chicken as a child.

Most of the sales are mainly roosters, and hens keep laying eggs.

There are few native chickens in the countryside, which are not heavy, and money can't buy them. They are all chickens bought back and raised freely. Of course, they are better than feeding chickens.

Characteristics of free-range chickens: thin feet, pointed claws, thick cocoons on the soles of feet for digging, muscular and fast running. Feathers are not loose. Free-range chickens have a relatively large activity and a relatively light posture, so their heads and bodies are relatively small, while cockscomb becomes large and straight due to exuberant secretion, with compact meat, thin skin and less fat, and small pores, which is very fragrant for stewing chicken soup. On the contrary, the feed chickens in captivity have more water, thicker skin and more fat, and the taste is not so smooth.

The village where my father-in-law is located is a famous professional chicken raising village here. There are chickens here, and there are chickens raised with broken fishing nets in the mountains.

What is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? Why can chicken sellers repeatedly trick city people into succeeding? First, the symptoms of farm chickens are as follows:

Second, why can chicken vendors repeatedly trick city people into success?

Chicken can only be said to be a "legend" now, and there are no strict rules about it. Chicken dealers have a conscience to sell free-range chickens as chickens! If you sell broilers as local chicken, it is cheating consumers. What is the most obvious sign of peasant chicken? Why do chicken sellers often trick city people into success? As can be seen from a group of native chickens, there are three kinds of rural native chickens: Sanhuang Chicken, Ma Chicken and Little Stupid Chicken. When we see these chickens of different colors, we can tell them from their appearance. Pure native chicken can be observed from its vitality, legs, feathers, head, feet and mouth.

Look at the spirit, look at the legs and look at the feathers. Chicken dealers who sell chickens by looking at their heads, claws and mouths, they use their golden words to fool people into buying their chickens. In fact, they are not selling chickens at all. It can be seen from the thighs of chickens that the thighs of broilers are particularly fat. If two chickens can serve a dish on their thighs, it can also be seen from the meat spirit that these chickens will not shrink back, bark or avoid when they meet people. Standing there like a wooden gazi, or lying motionless in the nest, there is a feeling of being slaughtered, why do you fall for it? This kind of native chicken is very cheap, 15 yuan +0 kg. People want to know why the price of this native chicken has dropped. Actually, it's not like this. All the chickens bought are fake chickens.

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

It's a shame to say that I'm from the countryside and went to buy pork this morning. I found that pork was too expensive, so I chose to buy a chicken. What kind of chicken is the boss The boss swears that chicken 15 yuan is a kilo. In fact, I know in my heart that few authentic rural chickens raised in small quantities can enter the market for sale, and those who can enter the market are not authentic, and most of them are free-range on a large scale.

And now live birds can't be traded. Bosses always kill chickens. As long as 15 yuan is a catty, they are also called native chickens. I can only smile, hehe. I thought that the price of authentic native chicken would not be so cheap if it fell from the "altar", which did not conform to the temperament of native chicken.

I am a rural person, and I have seven or eight chickens at home, all of which are fed by whole grains. Let me talk about the characteristics of authentic peasant chicken I have mastered:

Look at the combs first. They are big and ruddy, and some of them are still hanging. Generally speaking, authentic chickens are released once a year, or only once every two or three years. Authentic chickens are old chickens, and the nutrition of chickens for several months can not meet the nutritional standards of old hens.

We still remember that it used to be our old hen's business to hatch chickens, and the old hen was willing to do it. In spring and summer, hens begin to brood. Laying twenty eggs at a time can hatch in about twenty days, and the hatching rate is not all, so chickens can't survive and grow up to 50%. Therefore, the cost of raising chickens hatched by themselves is very high.

Second, look at the shape of the chicken. Chicken is generally lean meat, which can be said to be lean meat. So why did everyone cherish the smell of native chicken before? When eating meat, it tastes hard. Chewing with your teeth is called incense. Native chicken is thin, mainly because farmers can't feed native chicken. Basically, chickens are eaten by themselves, and some coarse grains such as corn, chaff and wheat bran are lost sooner or later. In fact, all the time is for the native chicken to feed itself, so the whole native chicken is used for eating, with large activity, thin legs and small chicken feet.

Third, the weight of the chicken is not big, and there is less oil on it. Especially the old hen, the weight is not heavy, about three pounds, but it is true that the color of the old hen's meat is lean after cooking, and the color of the broiler is white, which is different from the big one.

These are my criteria for judging authentic farm chickens. I hope it works. The success of chicken vendors in cajoling city people lies in their low prices. Everyone knows that authentic farm chickens are very rare.
