Lilydale chickens are handled with care right from the hatchery to the open fields of their farms.

The chickens are raised by passionate farmers under the Lilydale program that ensures animal welfare and the feeding program stays in place with a rich diet including cereals and protein meals.

In the large spread-out farms there are hay bales out to allow the chickens to use their natural instinct to walk up the wooden ramps into the huts. This allows for fun and encourages the exercise of the chickens.

There are also shade huts and trees to allow the chickens to escape from the heat, allowing the chickens to dig in soft soil and roam around searching for grubs and worms.

All this natural behaviour makes for better-flavoured chicken that is healthier for you.
