Chicken Farm


Whilst in Fujian, RB was shown a chicken farm.  Interestingly, the raising of chickens is segregated into different stages.  Some farms only breed eggs, some only chicks, some only start with chicks and grow them to adulthood.  Chickens are largely sold on the side streets and small markets.  However, the farmers are not allowed to directly sell the chickens in cities, and must go through a middleman

These were actually free run, organic chickens!




Factoid: As the hen ages, her eggs get bigger.  I wonder if that's true for humans too.  It's explain my brother!

There was a makeshift restaurant at the farm.  Naturally, RB and his mom and his friend feasted!
