They come from France and are of the Label strain. From the day they arrive, at four weeks old, we raise them the traditional way, with the slow growth natural to their strain, in the heart of the Sierra de Grazalema among olive, almond and carob trees, holm oaks, Portuguese oaks, wild asparagus, mandrake and wild capers. So, for as long as the law allows, our birds roam freely, feeding on insects such as grasshoppers, crickets and ants, and on all kinds of fruit, especially olives from the trees and shrubs mentioned above, supplemented with 100% natural feed available on demand. Every month our contracted veterinary service visits the farm to check that husbandry and growth are on track, testing the water, the feed, the ammonia levels in the barns and the cleanliness of all the facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoulards reach their ideal weight at 90 days: the autumn batch for sale at the end of October, and the Christmas batch so you can enjoy a delicacy at your table with the family over the holidays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA poulard is a young hen slaughtered before she lays her first egg, so that she fattens and grows without the stress that laying causes. This kind of bird is eaten once it reaches at least two and a half kilos, that is, at three months old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoulard meat is the most highly prized, because it is very juicy. The marbled fat does not spoil its tender texture. Although it is the fattiest meat, it has a mild, elegant flavour. As for cooking, it needs long, slow cooking at a low temperature, perfect for roasting or for the stockpot.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Finca Loma Verde","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60355232104782,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1065\/4393\/9918\/files\/b9fd3a_f94295de04c4445384f966bf1e7dc97a_mv2_e82f39a6-5a13-4a03-a14f-4e5fbeaa3136.jpg?v=1786444476","url":"https:\/\/fincalomaverde.es\/en\/products\/pularda-fresca","provider":"Finca Loma Verde S.L.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
