Ayam Kampung or Free-range Chicken

Watched River Cottage Spring on AFC yesterday. It touched upon a topic close to all of us - chickens! Me - don't quite like them, except for ayam kampung. My children - cannot live without them! I'm sure that is the situation with most households. I was informed that (Dr. Mercola touched upon this topic a couple of times before with almost the same conclusions) industrially-reared chickens have very much less omega-3 and so much more fat as compared to ayam kampung. Ayam kampung on the other hand has 25% less fat and 80% more omega-3, therefore so much more nutritious! How about that - meant intentionally for those who do not take ayam kampung!!

So, does anyone have any spare land to rear chickens? If you do, go get some to rear yourself - just don't get into trouble with the local authority! Me - am considering it soon, when I'll be home full-time. Got no small children to take care of, a bunch of chickens would do nicely! Only thing is, got to make sure that they don't have access to my porch -  don't quite like chicken poo!

tulah dah lama gak pak aji ni dok sebut nak buat reban, tak buat-buat. seronok bela ayam mcm kat sg. tua dulu, tangkat pakai lasso, mcm koboi pulak! bela ayam kampung bagus tau, hg mahal, makan pun sodap! zafhri kena fikir semula tu! i pegi kursus hr tu, katanya mara byk peluang utk usahawan ,kalau muda lagi elok.

i dengar siapa ntah citer pasal roti john tu. kan dah usahawan tu, pasni ayam kampung pulak! nasib baik keta je, tuannya tak apa-apa?

I don't think dia boleh buat ayam tu. Roti John and the rest tu I confident, just a matter of cari modal dengan jual kecil-kecilan dulu, kemudian cari restoran, then baru boleh digelar usahawan. Harap-harap dia berjaya nanti...
