The questions we get every week
How much does an Aseel rooster cost?
At our farm, Aseel cocks run from ₹5,000 to ₹25,000 per bird. Young cockerels start at the lower end; mature, broad-chested cocks with a proven line sit at the top. See the full price breakdown for what moves the number.
What is naatu kodi priced at per kg?
Country chicken sells at roughly ₹300–₹600 per kg of live weight, depending on age, size and the local market that week. Broiler chicken is far cheaper per kg, and the comparison guide explains why the two are not the same product.
Do you deliver or dress the birds?
No. We sell live birds only, collected at the farm — you see the flock, pick your bird and it is weighed in front of you. No delivery, no cut chicken, no cold storage.
When can I visit?
Daily, 8 AM to 12 PM at Potumeeda, Koduru. Call or message before you travel — +91 95507 05418 — because good cocks move quickly.
