Why Đông Tảo Chickens Are So Expensive | So Expensive 

Friends at the gym calling me "chicken legs" won't be the same after watching the video.

Damn, I thought those chickens had a disease in the starting of the video.

Everyone be like "Them legs look so strong!" and I'm just thinking "That looks like tumours"

If anyone is wondering about the taste, I had the chance to taste their meat once. Do you know about that small dark-colored inner part of the drumstick that's usually the best piece of meat from a regular chicken? Every piece of meat from these Đông Tảo chickens are like that but much much better: Extremely firm but not chewy, very aromatic with dense chicken flavor. The best part for me, would be their feet which are even more aromatic with full of crunchy textures, almost taste like a really good chicken soup in solid form. Hands-down the best chicken I've ever had in my life.

After looking at those feet..im 100% sure dinosaurs had feathers

My brain: "your exams starts tomorrow". Me: "I know, but look at them legs".

the saying "chicken legs" has a whole new meaning...

I'm convinced chickens were once dinosaurs now after seeing this.

These chickens look like they came straight outta Chernobyl

"Never skip leg day" ~Dong Tao chickens 2020

As someone from Hưng Yên, it's really nice to see one of my hometown delicacy being introduced to the world

Any other chicken: Why are you so much more expensive than me? Dong Tao chicken: F E E T

McDonalds: hold my 5 legged chicken

Prisoner: “what are you in for” You: “smuggling chicken eggs”

"What part of the chicken should we selectively breed to be meatier?" "..the feet?" "GENIUS!"

The breakaway faction of chickens who got tired of being ridiculed for having "chicken legs".

Being called chicken legs is not applicable with these buff chickens LOL

Meanwhile the chicken thinks like "This guy is so nice. He treats me very good. He is my good friend".

The regular domesticated chickens my grandmother's got in the village she lives, also have a rather more brown, stringier fiber-like meat that is stronger to taste, rather than the white one you find in stores. These are chickens that run around all day and peck and enjoy their lives. Most people don't realize that it does take quite a while for a chick to develop into a hen or rooster, if they feed on good food and run all day and eat vegetation in the summertime, after generations their meat changes. If you have a chick that hatched in springtime it may start to lay its first eggs (much smaller at the beginning) only next springtime and that if you are lucky as it usually takes two seasons. This is the way it should be done, but since the demand is so big, who cares if the animal is locked up in a small space and lays eggs every day literally 5-6 months after they hatched. I do not eat eggs from those chickens, because I don't feel is right. My granmda gives me a dozen a week and yeah, in late fall and winter they lay a lot less though.

The organic meat of the chickens my grandparents raised back in the day in Eastern Europe was also significantly darker, fibrous, and tasted completely different from what you buy in the store. Any breed of chicken takes about a year and a half to two years to fully mature, if fed regular food without concentrates and other crap that makes them grow in just 3-4 months so we can consume them. Yeah, I've seen the whole process from chick to mature chicken and it's long which is why my grandmother kept young hens for eggs, the young roosters for fresh meat, and honestly, then older hens who were between 6-8 years had the best meat for soups, especially in winter.

This is literally all the proof i need to know a t rex devolved into a chicken

Now I'm convinced chickens came from dinosaurs

If only 2-4% of chicks are high valued, and the rest are sold at a common price, then valuing each egg at $2000 is completely wrong. Nice job, Turkey.

Wait, why were they smuggling the eggs? Is it illegal to ship eggs internationally? Or were they trying to skip out on paying import tax? Are they worried about these chickens being invasive? This video has given me way more questions than answers

"He has been looking after this chicken for 20 years " Dafuq he looks 20 himself

Not gonna lie, the thumbnail looked like a man with a rare skin disease. Then the title said chicken.

I could never raise animals for food. I would get too attached :,(

these chickens never skip leg day

When somebody got called a chicken leg, these guys got offended

They look like they've got Ugg Boots for Chickens on.

This is the chicken who's done with being called chicken legs

This is so wild.!! I had seen pics on the net of these chickens before, usually a meme of some sort, though I had assumed that they were plagued by tumors, or something akin to lymphedema in humans. I had no idea that they were a breed all their own.

Those chickens look like they’re sick from “Elephantiasis” 😥

When they said dinosaurs are the ancestors of chickens, they weren't joking.

Little baby dragon chickens too friggin cute. I want one as a pet.

I would do very bad things for a quality breeding pair of these gorgeous birds

Man, this is not chicken. This is Cristiano Ronaldo.

Believe me. They are expensive because of their legs.

They look so cute I would love to have one of those Have always had chickens since I was little

Imagine evolving for many million years then get sold for cash.

When you don't miss your leg day.

a definitive rare breed, nice to have seen and learnt about their existence, thanks Bi

Vietnamese chicken: Manicure and special protein meal to compete American chicken: Antibiotics to overgrow their breast for McDonalds chicken nuggets

The farmer had been doing this for 20 years. He doesn’t look a day over 30 😳

Me: A local Vietnamese Also me: read the subtitles instead

This is the live proof that Birds are related to Dinosaurs lol :D

Why did I read the thumbnail as "Why are these chickens so explosive?"

I guess Wagyu beef does have his rival animal after all.

So they are like Kobe beef of chicken. Had their legs soak in warm tea, massaged and sunbathed. If that ain't Kobe beef grade of chicken, I don't know what is.

“Thought to be bread for cock fighting” I laughed way to much at this…

He really takes great care of them!!

"Whats the chicken called? Can you write it?" "Sorry man, the chicken's name is too stylish"

Those legs... NOW it’s understandable why chickens are the closest to t-rexes.

Literally, a generation passed down T. rex in a chicken / rooster form, they’re cute though. Very interesting. Been learning & asking my family on Vietnamese culture & tradition & this was never mentioned whatsoever.

This gives a whole new meaning to chicken legs. 😂

No one: Literally no one: Me at 3 am looking at chicken with huge feet

Imagine how Gordon Ramsay would react seeing their feet😂😂

I finally got my business loan yesterday. What a wonderful way to start the year.

Brilliant. Thanks a million for calling Tết as Vietnamese New Year. Great, so great.

The people who discovered this species be like, "hmm... Feet."

Hold up-the eggs in that suitcase that got confiscated were worth $2,000 EACH?!? Dayam. Next time I think I’m having a bad day I’ma think about whoever that suitcase belonged to and think, “yeah it could be worse” 😟😂

I’m 36 and this is the first time I’m hearing about these thick legged chickens. Still learning about the world and not being ignorant enough to assume I know it all because I thought those legs meant diseases but it’s actually a thing. Thank you RU-vid algorithms. 😎

As a local Vietnamese, I find it so unfamiliar to learn about our native chickens through an English Channel :)))

"they can live for 6 to 7 years" uuhh my oldest hen just turned 16... still goin strong

He’s literally making future dinos

"So what does it take to raise a Don Tao chicken?" Me thinking: "Probably a little radiation poisoning"

Chickens descending from dinosaurs is looking even more legitimate

this is the most serious chicken video ive seen

After all thses years, I'm still learning new facts.

Chicken: “these boots are made for walkin”

Still amazes me that there are so many businesses that usually only make their money once every year.

Step by step making dinosaurs great again. I see.

It’s official, dinosaurs were actually just giant chickens lol

Chicken:litterly grows a deformed feet Humans: that looks delicious
