@josh.farm1: Most people think they understand local chickens… but the truth is, there are many things nobody tells you 😳🐔 From their ability to survive harsh conditions, to eating less when properly managed, local chickens are very different from commercial birds. They may grow slower, but they bring steady value over time if you understand how to manage them well. Another interesting part is their eggs, smaller in size but often richer in color and highly valued by many consumers. And unlike commercial layers, they don’t lay every day, which is something many new farmers don’t expect. One of the most surprising facts is their lifespan… local chickens can live for years, even up to 10 years or more, although their egg production reduces with age. This makes them more of a long-term investment if properly managed. They also have strong natural instincts,from brooding and hatching their own eggs to adapting easily to different environments. Understanding these 5 key facts can change how you see local chicken farming completely. If you’re a farmer or planning to start, which of these shocked you the most?
