Bharath

SAP Consultant & Chicken Breeder

My journey with chickens started by raising them naturally in my backyard. Seeing the difference that natural, healthy rearing made, my interest grew to collect a variety of chicken breeds. I also grow our native naati chickens for our own use — they have a wonderful taste — and raise them ethically without any antibiotics or added supplements, just as they would grow in a natural habitat.
