Customer Audits
Elgin Valley chooks are 100% Australian owned and grown.
'We take very seriously the health and welfare of our chickens through our growing programmes and make sure we meet National regulations for human consumption and this is confirmed by regular testing of our meat for residues'
Elgin Valley chicken sheds can open up to 70% of the side wall, this is twice the FREPA standard to allow for better access to the outdoor area and coupled with the protective netting, achieve a high level of range usage. Outdoor areas are covered with a variety of plants and shade areas. At night time or during weather extremes the birds are kept in the sheds for their comfort and warmth.
Elgin Valley Free Range chickens have feed and water provided for them at all times inside the shed, but they are free to forage amongst the natural vegetation, primarily grass and grass seeds on the range.
Elgin Valley Free Range Chickens are sold with the Free Range Egg and Poultry Association (FREPA) logo. To obtain this, we have to have approval from FREPA to confirm we grow to their standards. This is achieved by regular independent auditing of our farms and farming practices. We internally audit our farms quarterly to ensure the Elgin Valley high farming standards are being met and maintained."
