Our slow growing rustic breed gives a wonderful texture and taste.Chickens are reared until they reach about 12 weeks old. Conventional (supermarket) chickens are slaughtered at 6 weeks old.Chicken are fed a GM Free feed with No Growth Promoters, Hormones or Antibiotics. Free range. The animals are kept in natural free range conditions. The chickens spend their whole lives outside and have insulated arcs to sleep in.No pesticides or chemical fertilisers are used on the land.
Have been supplied by 'Farmer's Choice' for all our 'free range' meat needs over the last 7-8 months.
A reliable service, great quality food although can be a little expensive for certain cuts...
If you accept that you need to adapt with respect to eating only 'free range' products, (e.g. eat chicken as a treat, use cheaper cuts by exploring different meal options etc etc...) then this company will meet your requirements.
Highly recommended...
