School Visit

The Local primary school had hatched a few chickens and asked for the opportunity to see how Staveleys Eggs rear their own little chicks. So we organised a small school visit to our rearing site and explained what goes into rearing a happy, healthy hen.


It started with an introduction to rearing and instructions on health and safety regulations on site. Every student and teacher were given disposable overalls and boot covers before entering the chick house. The children spend all day asking many questions and learning a lot about the day to day running of a rearing farm. It was a fantastic day and thoroughly enjoyed by all involved

Here are a few of the many thank you letters we received from the school, including detailed portraits of the rearing and managering staff members involved.
