Poultry Purpose: How Rearing Location Determines Function.

 Muscovy duck is a meat purpose duck. it is risen for meat production. The duck weigh up to three kilogram. it is produce large meat for a family. 

The main color of the mscovy duck is black, white and black white. Recentl, we can found some color variation scuh as lavender, grey, bronze, and other. This variation is more expensive than black and white color. 

Today, the colorful muscovy duch is not for meat purpose only but for ornamental bird. I see the ornamental is difefrent from otehr country. in my country some people raise brahaman chciken whihc is dual purpose as ornamental bird. 

The Brahma chicken, which is raised as a dual-purpose chicken, is raised as an ornamental chicken in Indonesia. The issue of the chicken's function as an ornamental chicken depends on the location where the chicken is raised

In Unites States, Silkie are raise as an ornamental chicken but in th eorigin country chine, the silkie is a good layer. it is also go broody too.

I believe ayam kampung could be risen as the ornamental chciken because it some various color. 

A hen lays egg twice in a day

 

Can a hen lay two eggs in a day? The answer is yes it can. Could a hen lay two eggs every day? The answer is it could not. Rarely, a hen lay egg twice in a day. It lay egg in the morning an in the afternoon. The second egg usually is “unperfect” egg. The shell’s egg is rotten and it could not be hatched. It could not be sold. No one buy the egg. Because the shell of the egg is to smooth, the shell cannot protect the egg from bacteria and pathogen. I am doubt to consume the egg. However, some chicken owner usually separates the egg directly from the clutch. They may fry it immediately.

Today the most productive is Austrolop which can lay 330 egg in year. Other  chicken like ISA brown lays 300 egg in a year. The Italian white leghorn also produce 300 egg a year.  I am very sure it is for two years only. After two years, the owner sells the old layer chicken. I wonder it must be tired for the layer hen produce 330 egg in years, the hen just “rest” 30 day in a year. Without sufficient nutrient, the hen must be suffered. Laying some egg, need high calcium nutrient and also high protein nutrient.

The hen must need rest too. In my opinion the 250 eggs in a year is an ideal. The hen gets enough rest from laying eggs. The quality of the egg is good too. The chicken gets 115 for rest. As human we also consider the rest for the chicken as the animal welfare. When we treat them well, they will give the best egg to us. The chicken is not a machine that can produce what you want. The chicken is also a living that we should teat them well.
