Game Birds:

Pheasant

Here at Cheshire Game Ltd we can supply various breeds of pheasant, our most popular breed being our 'CGS Commercial'. This pheasant is a mixture of breeds, designed to ultimately enhance both holding and flying characteristics. Our Commercial breed has successfully increased in popularity, season upon season. We are able to  supply eggs, chicks (day old) and poults (7 weeks).

French Partridge 

We also offer French Partridge (Red Legs) eggs, day-old chicks, and poults. Customers can choose poults at 10, 12, or 15 weeks old to meet their needs.

 

  

English Partridge

We can supply English Partridge (Greys), eggs, chicks (day old) and poults. Additionally, our English Partridge are supplied at 12 weeks old. Given the nature of the bird, we believe the 12 week age to be the optimum time for movement.

 

 

 Mallard Duck

Cheshire Game Ltd has a dedicated, purpose-built site for rearing mallard poults up to 6 weeks of age. Our system minimises human contact, preserving wild characteristics to ensure natural flying qualities in the birds. As a result, we are confident that the customer will recognise the difference in our mallard duck.

Delivery 

Cheshire Game Ltd UK wide delivery operations are highly geared toward timing and efficiency in the best possible way. Hence, our customers can trust that we actively optimise transit timing to minimise the duration game birds spend in crates and chick boxes. We schedule deliveries at the most suitable times for the birds' well-being.

Chick Orders; We promptly transfer chick orders to temperature-controlled vehicles for delivery the following morning upon order completion.

Poult Deliveries; will arrive AM and are classified in two categories dependant upon distance;

1. Below 150 mile radius: Poult deliveries within this distance radius are loaded AM, one hour after daybreak to allow birds to feed and drink prior to loading.

2. Above 150 mile radius: Poult deliveries outside of this radius are loaded after 8pm in the evening and transported overnight for AM delivery and daybreak release. Overnight transit is during the natural resting time for the birds during which, darkness will help to minimise stress.

Areas: We purposefully design our poult delivery vehicles and trailers to ensure both long-distance transportation and the comfort of the birds in transit. The suitability of our vehicles for this purpose allows us to deliver to slightly more remote areas to include Scotland, Northern and Southern Ireland and the Isle of Wight.
