Whole Capon | 6 lbs.

100% Antibiotic Free. Grown to the perfect size and weight for ideal flavor and juiciness, our Whole Capon is an excellent, craveable, and sublime alternative to Turkey. A capon is a special type of chicken created to make the meat more tender and less gamey.

It is a rooster that has been castrated before reaching sexual maturity, which improves the quality of the meat; after that, it is fed a rich diet of milk or porridge. The lack of testosterone makes for a more tender, flavorful meat that is a delight compared to regular chicken. Fossil Farms' Whole Capon is ready for oven roasting, and the incredible flavor shows the care involved with raising the birds.

***Capons are a special order item that may require several days' lead time to procure***
