My favorite, the chicken is tender and flavorful.
Unlike Longgang chicken, this one turns pink instead of yellow when cooked. I wonder if all roosters are like this.
I'll definitely stock up on this rooster when it's on sale.
I'm going to buy this rooster to make soup now. It has no fat at all and tastes quite salty.
The chicken I bought this time was excellent. You could still see blood when I cut it open, and more blood during the poaching process. The chicken was very fresh! The taste was also great.
I've bought it many times. The meat is firm and chewy.
The chicken is delicious and tender, and boiling it makes a great chicken salad.
Yummy, yummy, yummy.
Medium-sized chicken, not too big, not too small, good value for money.
Good quality chicken! Will order again! Thank you!

The chicken was excellent, with no gamey smell, and it was still cold when it arrived.
Big chicken
well packed and fresh
What I ordered: A whole frozen native chicken, the kind we grew up eating back home. It arrived frozen solid in a bag, and I defrosted it in the fridge before cooking. The flavor: This is the main reason to buy it. Native chicken tastes more like chicken than regular supermarket chicken, with a deeper, richer flavor, and it makes a great sauce. It was perfect for my caldereta because the meat soaked up the tomato sauce. The texture: It's leaner and firmer than regular chicken, with a bit of chew, which is how native chicken should be. It needs a longer, slower simmer to get tender, so don't rush it. The pieces are smaller and bonier too, but the bones add a lot of flavor to the pot. Convenience: Having it delivered frozen is great when there's no Filipino market nearby. Just plan ahead, since a whole bird takes time to thaw in the fridge.

Nice frozen chicken love it
Filipino chicken soup
Very good , packed good
The chicken was delicious, the meat was tender and sweet, the skin was chewy and crispy, very tasty. There were lots of soft-boiled eggs; I stir-fried half of them, and cooked the offal and soft-boiled eggs into a porridge, which was fragrant, delicious, and sweet. Thank you, Wee.
The chicken was very well preserved; it even had ice crystals when it arrived, and it was larger than I expected.

Frequently asked questions
What is native chicken?
Native chicken is a traditional or heritage chicken, usually raised slowly and often free-range, as opposed to fast-growing commercial broilers. Its meat is firmer and has a stronger chicken flavor.
How do I cook native chicken?
Cook native chicken low and slow, in soups such as Filipino tinola, adobo braises or boiled Vietnamese-style chicken, because the meat is leaner and firmer than standard broiler chicken.
Is native chicken the same as free-range chicken?
Not always. 'Native' describes a traditional breed, while 'free-range' describes how the bird is raised. Weee! lists several free-range whole chickens such as Organic & Free Range Chicken Whole.
What dishes use native chicken?
Native chicken is used in Filipino tinola and adobo, Vietnamese boiled chicken (ga luoc) and Chinese soups, where the firm meat holds up to long simmering.
Where can I buy native chicken near me?
Weee! delivers Asian and Hispanic groceries to your door in many U.S. areas; enter your ZIP code at weee.com to see availability and delivery options. Chicken on Weee! includes Wenglee Signature Brown Chicken and Kui Fei Free-Range Whole Chicken.
What is the difference between native chicken and regular chicken?
Native chicken is usually smaller, leaner and chewier than regular broiler chicken, with more pronounced flavor, and it takes longer to cook. Regular chicken is bred for fast growth and soft meat.
How should I store and thaw frozen native chicken?
Keep frozen chicken frozen until needed, thaw it in the refrigerator and cook it thoroughly to a safe internal temperature of 165 F. Follow the package directions.
Does Weee! sell old hens and roosters?
Yes. Weee! lists a stewing hen, The Original B&B Stewing Hen, and Ga Dong Nai Whole Rooster Chicken, both suited to long simmering.
