Our Chicken


We know that good things take time.

Our chickens are free to roam under open skies and grow slowly, just as nature intended. 


The chickens enjoy a unique grain diet which provides them with premium nutrition in the most natural way possible.

Our wheat and barley are sourced from local tillage farmers, and our soya and corn is sustainably grown and responsibly sourced outside of Ireland. The feed is made without animal products and is fortified with vitamins and amino acids to ensure good health among our flock.

We can promise that our chickens are never given steroids or other growth promoters and receive the utmost care from us year-round.  

Our free-range chicken is Bord Bia Quality Assured which means that it is 100% Irish, completely traceable and produced to the highest standards

Health Benefits

The nutritional content of chicken makes it a perfect food to include for diets of all ages and lifestyles.

Chicken is high in protein and is one of only a few lean protein sources. It is also naturally low in fat and salt. It also contains some valuable vitamins and minerals including: 

B3

Also known as Niacin, this B vitamin contributes to a healthy metabolism and is needed to release energy from the food that we eat, as it helps to break down protein, carbohydrates and fat into energy. It also helps to reduce tiredness. One serving of chicken provides 40% of an Adult’s RDA of Vitamin B3

B6

This is also called Pyridoxine, and it helps the body to form haemoglobin (red blood cells) along with contributing to a normal metabolism, and healthily functioning nervous system and immune system. One serving of chicken provides 40% of an Adult’s RDA of Vitamin B6..

Phosphorus

Needed for good bone and dental health, along with contributing to a functioning metabolism. One serving of chicken provides more than 40% of an Adult’s RDA of phosphorus.

Selenium

This mineral is essential for Thyroid health and a working metabolism. It also supports a healthy immune system and may support brain function. One serving of chicken provides a quarter of an Adult’s RDA of selenium.
