Product information
Herb Fed - For a bird with Taste.
Our award winning free range Herb Fed whole chickens are full of flavour and succulence - ideal for a family Roast. Feeds 5-7ppl.
Well known and loved, Herb Fed Poultry are raised by Emma and Edward Wilkinson on beautiful Yorkshire pastures. Their free-range living means they can peck away at the delicious grass, insects, herbs and cereals all day long and nestle down in their beds of straw in our small-flock huts by night.
Herb Fed chickens are exceptionally special not only because they are slow grown & reared in small flocks, but they are also fed on a unique diet of fresh herbs. We are the country’s first and only producers of Herb Fed Poultry.
Our birds fresh herb diet are the excess trimmings or herbs from another local farm that have simply gone past their best and would otherwise end up on a compost heap. By using this waste, we are not only contributing to our bird’s quality of life, but doing so in a way which is sustainable and environmentally friendly.
The herbs are nutrient-rich, and the variety means our birds are introduced to important additional minerals and vitamins, alongside their additive and hormone free cereal diet supplied by a local mill.
The unique herb diet coupled with our slow-growing ethos allowing the meat and muscle to develop as it should, makes for our trademark taste and texture - surprisingly not herby, but exceptional!

Storage
Preparation and Usage
Preheat your oven to 190ºC or gas mark 5. Remove all packaging before cooking and place the bird on a roasting tray and season. Cook for 18 minutes per 450g. Baste every 20 minutes with the tray juices. The chicken is cooked when juices from deep within the thigh run clear when skewered. If the bird is not cooked check every 10 minutes after the allocated cooking time. Rest the chicken for 15 minutes before carving.
If cooking from frozen, ensure the bird is thoroughly defrosted before cooking. Use within 24 hours and do not refreeze once defrosted.

Worth the Money
Succulent, flavourful and big to boot. Will def by again top quality, well done Ocado.
Simply the Best
This has been the most amazing chicken, smelt delicious and tasted beautiful. Bought on flash sale to try and now I am a convert. This will definitely be on the shopping list regularly my partner never stopped complementing it. Well done stocking this gorgeous chicken!
Disappointed
The chicken was huge and when I opened the pack a lot of deep red blood was inside the cavity, The neck was still in situ and a lot of pin feathers remained. No special flavour and won't buy again. The dog is still tackling the rest
Delicious but huge!
This has to be one of the nicest chickens we've had, but my goodness it was enormous! 3.3kg so came in at £30 and would feed 8-10 easily. For a small family you're going to be eating this for days.
fantastic chicken
We had this for lunch today and it was amazing. Juicy ,flavourful and delicious. Im so glad Ocado now have a great quality chicken as all the others are well below par!
