These free-range chickens in Mount Barker in WA are surrounded by the natural environment and are encouraged to conduct their natural behaviours, enhancing their health and wellbeing, which is important in ensuring a higher quality product.
- Family owned company Mount Barker Chicken has pioneered free range chicken farming in WA and is setting the standard for all of Australia.
- The team here are really focused on getting the chicken to come out more often and to range further so the sheds are narrower, meaning the birds can be outside in just a hop, skip and a jump.
- Mt Barker Chicken are encouraging the chicken to come out by providing different types of shade and cover to give them the protection they need and a generally natural environment to run around.
- This production system allows healthy, happy chickens, which means antibiotics aren’t needed during the production process.
- Mount Barker Chicken believe chickens that live in a happy, stress free environment with natural growing conditions give them their superior taste and texture. Delicious free-range chicken is a favourite during the festive season.
