6. Are there any limits to the amount of birds you have and when would you advise to buy?

We are limited by our butchery capacity and staffing. And we also have a limited number of birds so I would advise to buy now rather than later!

7. Do you think people are more adventurous with their Christmas dinners these days?

We have seen the decline over the years (we started in 1988) of the traditional large turkey for Christmas. People are having smaller get-togethers, and often want a change from turkey. Wild Boar is very popular this year.

8. What is your opinion on home freezing?

If meat is frozen when still fresh, I personally could not tell the difference between a previously frozen piece of meat and a fresh one, as long as it is defrosted slowly. Freezing is after all the most natural preservation method.

9. Has bird flu affected your prices at all?

Our prices are fixed and bird flu has not affected availability.

10. What variations of dressed turkey do you sell and which are most popular?

We only sell whole, oven-ready birds weighing 4-8kg.
