Meat Chickens
When you see the RSPCA Approved logo on chicken you can be confident that this product has come from a farm with a focus on welfare.

Chickens on RSPCA Approved farms are encouraged to be active. They have good lighting, perches, dry litter floor covering and space to move around. Whether raised indoors or with access to the outdoors, there’s a focus on providing for meat chickens’ behavioural and physical needs.

Standards
Chickens on RSPCA Approved farms are encouraged to be active. The RSPCA Standard allows for enriched indoor and outdoor housing that meet the needs of the birds.
Note: Exemptions to specific standards on particular sites may be granted on rare occasions, but only where the RSPCA can see that animal welfare is not compromised.
