We receive fortnightly deliveries of award-winning, Grassland Poultry Sommerlad Heritage chickens so, depending on when you want your chicken, it will either be fresh or frozen.
About Grassland Sommerlad chickens
They live up to four times longer than the generic, white broiler chickens that make up 99.9% of the Australian meat chicken industry and the slow growth and genetics allow for the development of strong bones and more deeply flavoured meat. Sommerlad birds have longer legs and more even meat distribution than the breast-heavy white broiler chicken and they are vigorous, athletic, curious hunters, ranging far afield in search of grubs and green pick.
They’re wonderful to look at too, with multi-coloured feathers and a variety of colours, shapes and sizes - breeds include Transylvanian Naked Necks, Australian Game, Croad Langshan and Plymouth Rock.
