Broiler ayam kampung crosses

 

As the broad chicken, a broiler is a good meat chicken. it weighs 2 kilogram in 40 days. some broiler can beyond the weighs in 40 days. in my country, the farmer just raises for 30 days to produce less two-kilogram broiler meat. The people do not like big chicken. they like smaller chicken. On the other hand, the farmers must be pleasure because, they do not have to raise for next ten days. Raising for next ten days need more chicken feed, man power, electricity, and other costs.

The taste of broiler meet is not delicious as ayam kampung. The price is juts one third of Ayam kampung. People believe because the fast growing the meat is not delicious. However, this chicken meat has helped people.

Broiler is a descent of various chicken breed. A famous of the broiler parent is broad breast Cornish chicken. Not surprisingly, the broiler gets high breast from the Cornish.

The cornish is dedicated for meat production. its is derived from some game chicken that has upward posture. While some chicken also participates in broiler chicken such as Rhode Island Red and Plymouth Rock.

in my country, this chicken is risen for pet. Some chicken owner raises the broiler until two years. the two yeas chicken must be bigger than common broiler at the time. the broiler reaches the maximum weigh. Sometimes the broiler are used the parent of the chicken. Some experts cross the chicken with Ayam kampung to improve the meat production. The cross must be heavier than the ayam kampung.

The expert also selects some crosses. They just select the best performance for the ayam kampung. Some crosses is fast growing and some is resisted to some diseases. The owner often crosses the male broiler to ayam kampung because it the broiler female cannot hatch the egg. Most owner just traditional farmer who do not have incubator. It is not simple cross the broiler hen.
