Biksham Chicken Center

Biksham Chicken Center is located at house number 1-61 in Bodlada. It’s a small village in the Nellikudur area. We run the shop right from here. Every morning starts very early, usually before the sun is even up, because we have to get everything ready for the day. People from around the village come by to get their meat for their meals. It is a simple setup with a wooden counter and the tools we need. We don't have any fancy decorations or air conditioning. It can get quite hot in the afternoons, so we usually sit under the shade of the roof during the quiet hours. We know almost everyone who walks through the door because Bodlada is a small community. We talk about the local news or how the crops are doing while we work. The smell of the shop is something we are used to, though visitors might notice it more. We keep things clean as much as we can, but it’s a tough job with lots of scrubbing involved at the end of the day. Sometimes we run out of stock earlier than expected if there’s a festival or a wedding in the village. Nellikudur is a bit of a distance away, so we stay put here most of the time. It’s just a regular local business helping our neighbors get what they need for their dinner tables. It’s a honest day's work for us. We just try to provide what people need every day.
