Guys, I guess we already did enough DD about Ecolocap that's why it might be intresting to find out some more about the new customers. Ecolocap did their testing on a batch of about 25.000 chickens and recieved $70.000/farm (350/5)in orders of today. There was a question on this board about that being kind of expensive. I agree when we only talk about 25.000 chickens/month/farm because then we would have a cost of about $3/chicken wich is way to high. I couldn't find out how many chickens a regular farm has but I assume that one farm has at least two henhouses because when they did the tests they must have had the test on the same farm with a hen house with and without the M-Fuel to be able to proove the effect. So when we take at least 50.000 chickens/farm our cost goes already to $1.5/chicken. So let's all agree that these numbers about the cost of fuel are realistic and can only get better when a farm holds 3 hen houses. Maybe a good question for this board to find out how many chickens are held in one farm and what the cost in heating/chicken amounts to in the US.. Anyway the cost of fuel seems to be a big issue in this business. Be able to raising an extra month of chickens with M-Fuel is big business.

So as an addition I found some extra info why the chicken business is becoming more important every year and also for export to the ASEAN countries.

First here's a video of a korean Anseong Chicken:

The seems they had some problems in the past with the bird flu and therefore the government watches closely to the healt of the chickesn. So Ecolocap's contrubition is another step in keeping the chickens healthier (no inhealing of the kerosene fumes anymore )and happier. Nothing to do with preventing bird flu but I guess it's better to sell chickenmeat not tasting like kerosene.

Korean Fried chicken also seems to beat even KFC's fried chicken. An it will get even better with the m-Fuel. The size of the korean chicken seems to be the main reason South-Korea no longer imports american Chickens. Siegel does know his markets.

According to Wikipedia this is why :

"Korean fried chicken is prepared in a way that removes the fat from the skin, resulting in a crust described by Julia Moskin of The New York Times as a "thin, crackly and almost transparent". The chickens are usually seasoned with spices after being fried. In South Korea, chickens are relatively small, so Korean fried chicken restaurants fry whole chickens before hacking it into bits. In the United States, chickens tend to be larger and Korean restaurants find it more difficult to deal with large breasts and thighs. As a result, many Korean fried chicken restaurants in the United States usually serve wings and small drumsticks. Pickled radishes, beer, and soju are often served with Korean fried chicken.[1]"

Conclusion : Maybe this business isn't sexy but I must admit that the chicken business is big business and size does matter. This concludes my contribution to the chicken DD. LOL
