organic chicken

is organic chicken equivalent to ayam kampung?

i see organic as natural..so organic chickens should be reared in a natural way..which means, no injections + antibiotics + growth hormones

chickens' lifestyle must be natural e.g. no crammed chicken house, so that these chickens can merayau sesuka hati and pulang petang like this -->

instead of like this -->


so sama la macam ayam kampung kan?

not exactly, organic chickens have to be certified..apart from the chickens, they also check on record keeping, hygiene..hehehe macam GMP la pulak!

and unlike ayam kampung that eats worms and leftover food, organic chickens eat specially formulated feed containing only cereals, vegetable protein, fish and vitamin/mineral supplement..and of course, free from GMOs

lebih gedik lagi, the feed ingredients have to be grown organically without artificial fertilizers or pesticides..this is certainly not cheap, and that is why organic chicken is more expensive

yang paling murah adalah ayam pencen =p
