To have Dong Tao chickens with beautiful shape and delicious meat is a process of meticulous care. Dong Tao chickens are considered beautiful, often with characteristics of tight combs, big heads, fierce eyes, short and inward-folded beaks. Especially the pair of legs are big, rough, and rough. When mature, the male can weigh up to 6kg. In addition to commercial chickens, production households also provide the market with many unique products from Dong Tao chickens such as: stir-fried chicken, silk chicken, chicken cartilage patties, lemongrass and kumquat chicken feet, salted chicken, etc. Along with that, cooperatives and production households develop services of transporting, processing, and vacuum-packing Dong Tao chicken products to serve customers.

Mr. Bui Van Bo in Tan Dan commune is mainly raising Dong Tao chickens with over 100 commercial chickens. He said: In the process of raising Dong Tao chickens, I always pay attention to providing adequate food sources and supplementing vitamins and minerals, prioritizing the use of products of microbial and organic origin to stimulate the growth of the chicken flock. Although quite large and strong, Dong Tao chickens have their own weaknesses, so the increase in the flock is often slow. On the other hand, this type of chicken lays fewer eggs than domestic chickens and is very clumsy in hatching. Therefore, the incubation rate is only 60 to 70%. This is the reason why this breed of chicken is difficult to develop widely. To effectively raise Dong Tao chickens, during the care process, it is necessary to grasp the physiology of each stage of the chicken flock to adjust the amount of food and living conditions. The barn also needs to be cleaned regularly. On average, each year, my family sells about 100 commercial Dong Tao chickens to the market at a price of 320 - 450 thousand VND/kg.

Dong Tao chicken is one of the key products of Khoai Chau district participating in the One Commune One Product (OCOP) Program, with the goal of developing sustainable livestock farming according to the industry chain. Up to now, the district has 5 products from Dong Tao chicken recognized as OCOP products, including Dong Tao chicken meat products with 4-star rating, products: Dong Tao chicken ham, Dong Tao chicken fried ham, Dong Tao chicken cartilage patties, Dong Tao chicken ham with 3-star rating. According to the orientation to 2025, Dong Tao chicken is one of the products standardized to become a 5-star rated product in the province's OCOP Program. Participating in the OCOP Program is not only an opportunity to promote products, increase people's income but also contribute to promoting the socio -economic development of the locality.

In 2015, the district coordinated with the Department of Science and Technology to successfully implement the project "Building, managing and developing the collective brand of Dong Tao Chicken", contributing to encouraging farming households to boldly invest in machinery, apply scientific and technological advances in production, and improve product quality. Thereby, enhancing the value and reputation of products in the market, combating copyright infringement, contributing to the restructuring of the rural economy, promoting development, and enhancing the value of goods, especially local specialty products.

With the consulting support of the professional sector, Dong Tao Chicken Breeding and Trading Cooperative, Dong Tao Commune has implemented a closed chicken production and supply chain to ensure food hygiene and safety. Dong Tao chicken products of the Cooperative are highly appreciated for meeting strict requirements such as big feet, dark feathers, red skin... after processing, the meat is not loose but firm, delicious, and is favored by consumers. Mr. Le Van Thang, Director of Dong Tao Chicken Breeding and Trading Cooperative said: In 2016, I established the Cooperative with the aim of connecting and linking farming households and building a farming process according to VietGAHP standards. The members are closely linked together from the stage of selecting breeds, care and raising processes with the goal of preserving the purebred Dong Tao chicken breed. In 2022, the Cooperative had Dong Tao chicken meat products recognized as 4 stars, Dong Tao chicken ham products, Dong Tao chicken sausage products were recognized as 3-star OCOP products. To maintain the market, in the coming time, we will continue to expand the scale of farming, invest in technology and machinery to improve quality and design to affirm the brand of the product.

To improve the quality of Dong Tao chicken products associated with brand building, creating favorable conditions for product consumption and attracting investment, aiming at export markets. In the coming time, the district will focus on promoting trade promotion activities at fairs and seminars in and outside the province; guiding and supporting production and business entities to promote, introduce and consume products, meet and find distributors, and expand the market; Organize and coordinate training courses on the OCOP program, trade promotion, etc. At the same time, the district continues to direct communes and towns to proactively monitor the development of the consumption market, grasp local supply sources and price fluctuations to have timely adjustment measures, carry out good sanitation of barns to stabilize, regenerate and develop, deploy vaccination according to plan, strengthen monitoring of disease situations, carry out good care and disease prevention for chicken flocks, continue to raise animals in the direction of biosafety, VietGAHP, etc.
