ANTIBIOTIC FREE CHICKEN
The Bare Bird is antibiotic free chicken. In fact, our free range chickens are raised with no added hormones, growth promotants or any other medication that may be classified as antibiotics.
The World Health Organisation has said the less we are exposed to antibiotics, the more effective they will be when we need them.
How?
Healthy birds in healthy environments simply don’t need antibiotics.
We keep our birds healthy by providing a comfortable, safe environment including access to the outdoors during the day, feeding them a nutritious diet made from seeds, grains and legumes. We have a strong focus on biosecurity and cleanliness on our farms and our dedicated team take great care of our chickens.
Bird welfare
Bird welfare has and always will be our highest priority. If The Bare Birds were ever to fall ill and require antibiotic medication, we would administer it. We would not sell those chickens as The Bare Birds.
FREE RANGE CHICKEN
The Bare Birds are raised on free range farms with RSPCA Approved certification. Well, what does that mean?
Raising chickens to the RSPCA Approved standard requires meeting a wide range of strict, independently assessed requirements. It’s a standard we work hard to achieve, ensuring our birds are raised in enriched environments that support their natural behaviours and physical well-being both inside the shed and outdoors.
During the day when weather permits, birds have access to an outdoor area with plenty of space to forage and explore. During the night or when weather isn’t ideal birds have an enriched barn to stay safe inside, with perches, pecking objects and dry friable litter – all to encourage their natural behaviours.
