Vegetable Grains Fed Chicken – Are they Really Different from Commercially Raised Poultry? 

Crusy Shela

Taste of a chicken dish is not just dependent on the recipe, chef, spices, and flavors. It’s equally dependent on how the chickens are fed. Commercial suppliers of poultry products do not pay much attention to what the chickens eat. The two main reasons behind this ignorance are as follows. 

  1. They succumb to the pressure of mounting demand and in their haste to meet the supply, they end up giving hormonal injections to the livestock to reduce the breeding time so that the supply can be met. 
  2. They don’t care enough. In order to save money that goes into caring for the livestock, they either feed them with animal leftovers, animal fat, and, as we said, hormone injections. 

This is why it’s better to buy vegetable fed chickens. The farm owners like Les fermes d’Isabelle who run a family business and supply chicken and other poultry ensure that their livestock is fed only natural products. The grain fed chicken from their farms are extremely healthy because of the following reasons. 

  1. The chickens are fed with vegetable recipes made mostly with soybean and meat. There’s no animal fat included in the feed whatsoever. 
  2. The vegetable grains come from naturally fertile soil that’s not treated with any insecticides.
