Feel like Chicken Tonight?


I really do not know how accurate this is or where the source is from. But I do find the pictures somewhat disturbing...and well-taken. Its like the people are actually posing for the shot. Which is strange as this would break their rice bowl?


Oh well but here goes anyways.

Early dawn, starts the day by riding around to collect dead chicken

Asking around for dead chicken

Total of 5 riders are hired by the boss to farms to buy dead chicken

A dead chicken cost 1 RMB and would be sold at 9 RMB after processing

Storage for the dead chicken in the court yard

carcasses are thrown everywhere

And on the floor....

4 employees start de-feathering the dead fowl after soaking in boiling water from a rusty wok


Enduring the pungent odour, but sometime, it get so terrible that even the most experience d of the workers would puke

Workers rushing to get the chicken de-feathered

A discarded bath tub being used to soak the bare skin dead chicken ... the contaminated water would have accelerated the decomposition process

Wearing slippers walking among the chicken before colouring processing

After the colour dye, its creepy to find that they are quite tenderising

And now presenting the mouth watering Charcoal Roasted Chicken!
