A corn chicken is not just a chicken that is fed with corn. These corn chickens are raised at small-scaled poultry companies around and on the Veluwe. The yellow colour of the corn chicken comes from the natural feed of corn, corn is a natural product that has a lot of influence on the life of the chicken.
Corn feed provides more than enough calories, which causes the inactive chickens to bulk up quickly, but it’s too low in fatty acids and certain amino acids, vitamins and minerals for chickens to thrive.
