The rates of Chicken have been sliding up and down for the past 1 year and in our place (Chennai-India) we get 1 kg chicken for Rs.90. During the time when there was bird flu in some areas of our country , chicken rates came down to Rs.20 per kg. $1 - Rs. 42.86 So whats the cost of Chicken in your place. Lets compare them.

I am from Nepal, and chicken costs around 2.5 dollars per kg here. By the way, it's been long since I last ate chicken. The bird flu thing is scaring me very much. Our country neither has any means to find out if the disease is already here nor does it have any infrastructure to stop the outbreak of the disase if it starts spreading. Hence, I don't eat chicken these days. Afterall, prevention is always better than cure.

Dude you can always have fried chicken. When a chicken affected with bird flu is cooked at 70'C the virus will be destroyed. Even more Bird flu affects only the brids and not us. You can get only stomach upset if u eat a chicken with Birdflu. So when you buy a chicken make sure it was healthy. then no need to worry.

We can get a whole chicken for 3-4 dollars US money. We may have to cut it up ourselves, but that's fairly cheap! (And turkey is less than that!)

Oh the cost in your place is 3-4 dollars ah. Thats fairly expensive because we get it 1 Kg Chicken (which is ready for cooking) for $2, they themselves clean it and give. But when we weigh a chicken alive for 1 kg the cost is $1.

i don't or was not able to monitor the prices of basic commodities here in my country. i really don't know cause i don't buy that often. but anyways, i think that the prices of every thing has risen though i think it has not really yet risen that big. little increments of increase every week will going to cost us much in the long run. hopefully the price will lower again and will be stable.
