In the world of poultry, one breed stands above all for its extraordinary health benefits and striking appearance: the Kadaknath chicken. Known locally in Nepal as "Kalo Kukhura" or "Kali Masi," this rare breed is famous for its jet-black feathers, skin, meat, and even bones. At Agri Promotion and Innovation (Agripi), we are the leading providers of ethically raised, 100% authentic Kadaknath chickens in Tulsipur, Dang.
Unmatched Nutritional Profile
Research shows that Kadaknath chicken meat is a nutritional powerhouse. It is one of only three black-meat chicken breeds in the world, prized for a nutrient profile that far exceeds regular broiler or local varieties.
- High Protein: Contains over 25% protein, significantly higher than the 18% found in regular chicken.
- Low Fat & Cholesterol: With a fat content of only 0.73% to 1.05%, it is the healthiest meat choice for heart patients and those managing weight.
- Rich in Iron and Minerals: Potent source of iron, calcium, and phosphorus, essential for bone health and vital energy.
Medicinal Properties and Ayurveda
In traditional medicine and Ayurveda, Kadaknath is used as a natural remedy for various ailments. Its meat and blood are believed to:
- Increase hemoglobin levels and improve blood circulation.
- Act as a vasodilator, supporting cardiac health and vigor.
- Provide relief for chronic conditions such as asthma, nephritis, and nervous disorders.

Culinary Excellence: The Taste of Kalo Kukhura
