ANimal Welfare Certified

At Thomas Reid Farms, animal welfare isn’t just a promise; it’s a certified third-party reality. Our chickens hold a Step 3 certification from the Global Animal Partnership (GAP). This international certification signifies that our birds are raised according to some of the most rigorous animal welfare standards in the industry. But what exactly does that mean for our chickens?

What Makes Us Different?

We believe in meticulous care for our birds and the environment. Our chickens are free-range with access to pastures. They’re never given antibiotics, hormones, or medications. Their feed is a balanced, non-GMO blend of corn, soy, and wheat, with no animal by-products.

Our commitment is unwavering.
