Product Description
Kuroilers chicken are derived from crossing either coloured broiler males with Rhode Island Red females, or, White Leghorn males crossed with female Rhode Island Reds, they are a dual-purpose breed producing meat and eggs, they can be reared under free range just like indigenous chicken.
Kuroiler chicken lay around 150 – 200 eggs, KARI lay between 200 – 250 eggs, while Kienyeji lay 40 – 70 eggs per year. Therefore you can see clearly that that Kuroiler produce five times more eggs than the Kienyeji.
The only disadvantage that stands out is that Kuroiler does not sit (incubate) its eggs. They rarely go broody and if they do they won’t sit on the eggs for the whole 21 days duration. Therefore a farmer would need a Kienyeji broody chicken or an incubator to hatch Kuroiler eggs.
Kuroiler are the game changer in the local chicken industry, they multriply faster and can change the way farmers look at kienyeji Value Chain.
