Vanaraja is a dual-purpose chicken variety developed by the project directorate on poultry.[1] Vanaraja produces eggs and meat based on rearing and feeding practices. Important features of this breed are multi-color feather pattern, immunity to disease, perform with less nutrition, grow faster and produce more eggs, produce brown eggs like local hens.[2][3][4]
Vanaraja give their best performance when reared free range. They each produce up to 110 eggs per year, and weigh 2.2 to 2.6 pounds at age 6-6.5 months. Vaccination of native birds along with Vanaraja is recommended. Excess body weight may reduce egg production. Vanaraja are mainly found in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
