Bacolod in Negros Occidental
is known as the City of Smile and for their Masskara Festival. They are also popular
because of their delicious chicken inasal or grilled chicken and with their
sweet delicacies. Aside from these, they are also known as the home of talented
gamefowl breeders. From now and then, their good reputation would never change.
When you say Bacolod, the initial reaction of any Pinoy cockers is very
positive. They know that chickens from Bacolod are really good. Having a good
environment is a major factor why their chickens are strong and healthy. Many
farms in Bacolod are located in high areas. So, the weather there is so
different compared to the farms located in low areas.
Some
men from Bacolod are travelling in Manila or any part of the country to sell
their chickens. In Filipino term, they called themselves as ‘biyahero’. Or vice
versa, many cockers is going to Bacolod just to buy chickens. But if they
can’t travel, the chicken owner will shift their order through cargo and it
will be picked up at the airport. But of course, it’s a right move if you will
personally visit the farm because you can choose and spar the chicken. So, you
will know that if it would fit with the fighting style you’re looking for a
chicken. Unless, you’re already a regular customer of the breeder you’re
dealing. You don’t have to worry because you’re really familiar with his
chicken bloodlines.
In
Bacolod, you will find the farm of some respected breeders from the likes of
Lance Dela Torre, Danilo Hinlo of DVH Gamefarm, Mayor Juancho Aguirre,who is
very popular with his Greys and Lemon 84, Vic Yulatic, the very influential
Lacson Family and many more. If you will buy chicken from them, you have an
assurance that you will get a good material because their chickens had already
a good record. Aside from big time breeders, you can buy also to the aspiring
breeders of Bacolod. Just ask other people to know who they are.
If you
don’t have a big budget for buying chickens from respected breeders, I recommend
that you should go at Smith Central Market. Many chicken sellers are standby
here waiting for costumers. If there is a bazaar for chicken, this is the place
for it. The prices of their chicken are so cheap. But they have no shop or
booth; they are only holding or tying their chicken beside them. But don’t
underestimate it; remember it is a Bacolod chicken? When you’re choosing, you
may spar the chicken to see its fighting style.
