Red Leg Partridges

 

In recent years we have expanded are Partridge flock in order that we can be more self-sufficient. Our laying flock now comprises 11520 pairs that our housed in enriched raised laying units protecting them from many of diseases and problems associated with birds kept on the ground.

 

Our birds are kept in a 3 year cycle, with the oldest birds being sold as ex-layers immediately after their third laying season.

 

The birds are routinely treated to protect against parasites and are also vaccinated against infectious bronchitis, mycoplasma, TRT, Newcastle’s disease and salmonella.

 

The raised units are equipped with an automated feed system supplied by Collinsons. This system allows each row to be fed independently by auger from a bulk storage hopper. Nipple lines are also fitted, fed by mains regulated water through a medicater.

PARTRIDGES EGG PRODUCTION

 

 

Our partridge laying flock is concentrated on one field only a short distance from the hatchery. The eggs are collected daily and brought straight to the hatchery where they are sanitized and disinfected before being graded. Unsuitable eggs are removed before the eggs are put into our environmentally controlled store.

 

We have the capacity to set 87000 partridge eggs per week depending on demand. We go into full production on peak weeks however when demand overtakes our production we will source eggs from France, these eggs are only supplied from the most reputable and reliable suppliers.
