Residents view a 5.5 kg hen, which is priced at 2,600 yuan (US$330) at an agricultural expo in Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang Province November 22, 2006. The alarmed price is attributed to an unprecedented cost of feeding, which consumes over 20 Chinese traditional medicines, like angelica. But medical workers pour cold water on its value, saying it is not that nutritious to people. [Newsphoto]
