Organic & Free Range Chicken
Day-old chicks are bought in and are raised
indoors in spacious huts and let out (as soon as the weather allows) to
range freely on grassland for approximately twelve weeks or until they
have reached the required weight for the table. The birds have access to
both grass and housing, which is littered every day with fresh straw.
Each batch of chickens starts on new fresh pasture therefore avoiding a build up
of pests and diseases.
The Suffolk White is a slow growing breed
which allows the chickens to grow at
their own pace having time to develop all their natural
physiological and behavioural patterns (which are heavily
suppressed in intensive systems). This ensures the
highest possible quality and flavour. |
