Raise Older two years layer

After two years, the farmer will replace the hen. changging the hen in order to keep the production. Keep the old layer is not productive. After two yeasr the egg production is decrease and they have still feed them with some protion chciken feed. it is not profitabel for commercial gees.

in my country, the older hen, called as spunt is sold as meat. Most commercial farm sell the spunt to traditional or modern market. I ask gemini that the commercial farm does not use the spunt as the human food. I have ever eat the spunt and it is good but you need more time to cock because the thick skin and the hard meat.

The spunt is good for soup, stew, and other. You can also make stocks and broth from the sput. Boil the meat with some vegetable such as onion, prey, cabbage, tomato, and else.

In United States, sometimes they use spunt for cat or dog food. the chciken are stunized and processed by the engine. Sometime they got burial the older chicken off course after the chicken. death.

Today some farmer in my country use th spunt for layer too. They just raise for two weeks and they got benefit from some eggs. They know that the spunt is not productive as the layer . They also sell the meat too and get benefit from it. The spunt is cheaper than ayam kam;pung and the taste is almost similar to ayam kampung. Some people prefer Spunt than Ayam kampung, due to its cheap price.

Some farmer use the spunt for croes breed. They mate the layer with ayam kampung. The farm aim is to create the crosbreed that egg production is better than ayam kampung. They succesfully for that. Through , ayam kampung egg is small but it is more expensive than common chicken  eggs. They believe the ayam kampung’s egg is better than layer eggs. Some believe that the egg can cure certain diseases (off course, I do not believe it).
