A Christmas Cockerel is fantastic eating, combining the taste, succulence and texture of a quality free-range chicken with the size of a turkey (approx 5kgs) As with our turkeys, the cockerels are slow-reared for exceptional taste. With a life span of 130 days compared to the average supermarket chicken, which is reared to 38 days, they are grown to maturity resulting in super large sizes and fabulous moist meat. Your cockerel will come in a presentation box, oven-ready with a brochure, recipe card, letter and pop-up timer.
