D'Artagnan's poussin are sourced from small farms that follow strict humane protocols, raising birds in open barns with ample space on an all-vegetarian diet of corn and soy with no antibiotics or hormones ever used. Known in France as spring chicken, these young birds are harvested at three to three and a half weeks, producing all-white, exceptionally moist and tender meat with the delicate, mild flavor the French have celebrated for generations. Each bird weighs approximately one pound and serves one to two, making them ideal for elegant dinner parties where individual plating makes a dramatic impression or for intimate weeknight meals with a premium feel. Available whole and ready to roast, spatchcock, stuff, or sear. For larger format options from the same quality sourcing, explore capon or our full range of free-range organic chicken.
