"Booked bird", the turkey in Peqin replaces the Christmas tree

Beijing is determined to hold on to its symbol, the turkey, which has replaced the city's Christmas tree.

For this reason, the municipality also organized the turkey fair, aiming for this symbol to remain in its place of origin.

President Bajram Begaj also participated in this fair, who did not hide his desire to have a Beijing rooster on the table on New Year's Eve.

As if to prove that the Peqin rooster has other values, this year almost all the farmers who have bred this bird, symbolic of the end of the year holidays, have all their heads booked even though the price is higher than last year.

This year, according to data from the local agriculture office, 27,500 turkeys have been raised in the municipality of Peqin, a figure that is small compared to the requirements. (A2 Televizion)
