Since antibiotics are not used, how can I be sure my organic chicken is healthy and free of harmful bacteria?
Chickens do not need antibiotics to grow and be healthy. The chickens at Petaluma Poultry and Coleman Natural are raised without the use of antibiotics and raised with excellent poultry husbandry practices. Chickens are grown in spacious housing with plenty of natural sunlight and fresh air and have sufficient room to move about the entire house. They are given also given outdoor access which helps contribute to a stress-free living environment.
