What's the difference between cage chicken and traditional chicken? What kind of chicken?

Free-range chickens breathe fresh air and exercise a lot, and broilers show relevant characteristics when they go on the market; In terms of body shape and appearance, free-range broilers are compact, with bright red comb and bright feathers, and the beak, tibia and other parts are dark in color, orange or cyan;

The meat pad on the feet of free-range chickens is worn, hard and rough; Due to the long feeding period, slow growth and development, large activity venues and activities during stocking, tight muscle fibers in chest muscles and legs, and hard and elastic sternum. At the same time, chickens can eat some natural feed such as grass leaves, grass seeds, humus, insects, etc., which has strong disease resistance, more aroma substances synthesized and deposited in muscles, and the taste and flavor of chicken are more delicious.

Caged broilers are kept in cages for a long time, so there is little exercise during the growth period and the air quality is relatively poor; Due to the rapid growth and development, the meat quality is poor; The brightness of the comb is relatively poor, and the feathers of cage chickens grow poorly, showing fluffy shape and lack of luster. Some chickens peck feathers and anus; Because of less exercise, more meat and fat, the chest muscles and leg muscles are looser and less elastic.
