Hazeldenes Chicken

Hazeldenes chickens are raised on farms with RSPCA Approved certification. 

These farms take pride in raising their birds in enriched barns with perches, objects to peck at, and dry, friable litter, all to encourage their natural behaviours which ultimately leads to better welfare. 

These meat chickens are reared to the RSPCA’s Standard for Meat Chickens with over 400 requirements, each one with a focus on welfare, as well as ongoing, continuous improvement. These requirements include providing the birds with perches for improved leg health, quality lighting periods, dry, friable litter for scratching and dustbathing, and interesting objects to peck at. 

Certified farms are assessed two to four times per year by specially trained RSPCA Assessors who make sure that the Standard is being met. Hazeldenes primary processing facilities are also assessed annually. 

Meat chickens on Hazeldenes farms are also fed a nutritionally balanced, vegetarian diet. 

Available at Harris Farm Markets, Tasman Butcher and selected independent retailers throughout NSW and Victoria.
