Zhihu: In rural areas, why do some people buy old hens for more than five years at high prices?
The reasons for the high-priced purchase of old hens for more than five years in rural areas are: the high nutritional value of chickens, market speculation, and the search for "chicken treasures".

1. Chicken has high nutritional value.

Because there is a saying that drinking old hen soup supplements the body, the price of old hens in the market is rising. Since there is demand in the market, the price will not be very low. What's more, the older the old hen, the greater the market demand and the higher the price.

2. Market hype

Where there is a market, there is speculation. The rarer the goods, the more people need them, and the higher the price of speculation. For manufacturers, the higher the hype, the greater the profit. So this situation is largely speculated by these manufacturers.

3. Search for "Chicken Treasure"

Everyone has heard many stories about Bao Bao, Ma Bao, Niu Bao and Bao Yang. If you can find it, the price is very high. Similarly, chickens also have "chicken treasures", and the price of chicken treasures is not low. There are different opinions about the location of Keppel. Therefore, for old hens for many years, some people buy them at a high price just to find chicken treasures.
