Chicken
SPCA Certified chicken meat comes from meat chickens raised in comfortable, enriched free range and barn raised systems. Our standards ensure that these systems allow the chickens to move around freely and perform natural behaviours such as dust bathing, perching, scratching, and foraging. Both systems give chickens access to environmental enrichment, perching and more space. For free range systems, shade and shelter on the range provide opportunities for the birds to make the most of being outside.
