In Mumbai, there are many people selling small chicks and hens, so anyone interested can keep them at home.
However in goa there are almost no sellers for chicks and hens, for those who wish to keep a pet hen at home though homes are far bigger. The domain investor had enquired at a local poultry shop, and she was told that it was not possible to chicken, she would have to import them from elsewhere.
The goan government facing problems after the mining crisis, is now trying to encourage poultry farming, and is offering incentives to those who wish to start a poultry farm. At present most of eggs and chicken are imported to goa from other states.
According to the newspaper report, there are only 10 poultry farms in goa at present.
Before the mining boom, there were over 5000 poultry farms, now farmers have lost interest in keeping hens, though it is fairly lucrative and a passive source of income.
Anyone who can supply chicks and live hen at a reasonable price in panaji, goa can send an email to info@textads.in
