We can offer
Building a successful business requires knowledge, expertise and guidance from a host of experienced people. Our team will advise you on every aspect of setting-up a poultry-laying site, covering everything from design and specification of the building(s) to obtaining planning permission. We will ensure that your new business venture launches and runs successfully, with on-going support being an integral part of our working relationship. What’s more, Stonegate’s fully integrated production contracts guarantee the purchase of all the eggs you produce from your enterprise.
Should you simply be looking for a stand-alone service, Stonegate also offer a source of high quality point of lay pullets. We provide you with a range of options tailored to your business, from traditional breed, organic to conventional free-range supply contracts.
Our Producers Need…
From producing wholesome organic eggs to delicious free-range eggs, there are a few essential attributes required for any successful poultry site:
- A reasonably level, free-draining piece of grassland (area of land available will govern the number of birds that it is permissible).
- Potential good highway access.
- Some prior livestock experience.
All new poultry buildings require planning permission from your local authority. We can suggest and recommend a proven planning consultant team to assist with your planning application.
The flock cycle for free range and organic egg production is 14 months, and the enterprise requires management and labour seven days a week during this period.
