England Acres raises Cornish Rock X chickens for your eating pleasure. After you’ve tasted them, you will never go back to store bought chicken again!
As baby chicks, Judy hand tends each batch and raises them on a custom, ground feed. Alternating between a soy free based ‘on farm’ ground feed and a corn and soy custom mix; both mixes use an organic mineral supplement to balance the growing birds mineral needs. Customers can inquire at the Market or by emailing judy@englandacres.com, if they have a preference and want to know which batch of chickens were raised on a supplemental diet that was soy free.
Once each batch of Cornish Rock X chickens reach five weeks of age, and are fully feathered, they are then given access to a fresh pasture for the duration of their growth.
The chickens are never caged or harshly handled prior to having them processed at Locust Point Farm, a USDA inspected facility. The chickens are USDA inspected and individually packaged.
Prices are subject to change without notice depending on the cost of raising and processing the chickens. They usually average between 3.5-6 lbs per bird. Enough to feed the average family. Using Judy’s Seasoning Mix on the chicken gives a wonderful flavor to an already tender and delicious piece of meat!
England Acres is seasonally raising the Cornish Rock X, processing every 4-5 weeks, beginning in May and going thru the Fall months. Call or email to inquire when the next batch of Fresh Chicken will be available in The Farm Market.
