Our Standard at Biochic

At Biochic, our core standard revolves around providing you with organic, healthy, and ethically reared chicken for both meat and eggs. This commitment is woven into every aspect of our operations, ensuring the well-being of our birds, the quality of our products, and the health of our planet.

Human Animal Welfare

We believe in treating our animals with the utmost respect and care. Our chickens are raised in spacious, free-range environments that encourage natural behaviors like foraging and dust bathing. We ensure comfortable housing, constant access to fresh water, and a stress-free living experience, because we know that happy, healthy chickens produce the best quality products.

Raised without Antibiotics

Biochic Foods is committed to responsible animal husbandry. We adopt a proactive approach to flock health through stringent biosecurity, excellent nutrition, and stress reduction, minimizing the need for routine antibiotics. Our focus is on prevention and natural support, ensuring healthier birds and antibiotic-free products for our consumers.

Organic

Our commitment to organic principles means our chickens are fed a strictly organic diet, free from synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or genetically modified organisms. We avoid artificial growth promoters and hormones, ensuring that our eggs and meat are as natural and wholesome as possible, just as nature intended. We also integrate the use of locally sourced herbs and botanicals into our poultry management, further aligning with our "bio" principles for animal well-being.

Stewardship

Our team embodies the spirit of true stewardship, deeply committed to the well-being of our chickens and the quality of our products. Every member, from our farmhands to our quality control specialists, shares a profound respect for the animals and the environment. Their hands-on dedication, unwavering commitment to ethical practices, and deep knowledge of sustainable farming are the pillars of our success. It's their gentle care, their watchful eyes, and their tireless work that truly sets Biochic apart.

Environmental Sustainability

Sustainability is the heartbeat of Biochic. We are committed to pioneering environmentally responsible practices that minimize waste, conserve resources, and promote ecological balance:

• Organic Manure: We transform chicken manure, a valuable farm byproduct, into nutrient-rich organic fertilizer ("Biochic Mbolea - Biofert"). This enriches soil, reduces the need for chemical fertilizers, and completes our farm's nutrient cycle.
• Black Soldier Fly (BSF): Our innovative BSF rearing facility is a cornerstone of our sustainability strategy. BSF larvae efficiently convert chicken manure and other organic waste into high-protein biomass, which becomes a key ingredient in our Biochic Feeds. This process significantly reduces farm waste and our environmental footprint.

Safety Standards

The health and safety of our birds, products, and consumers are paramount. We uphold rigorous safety protocols across all our operations:

• Biosafety: Our comprehensive biosafety program is designed to prevent the introduction and spread of diseases within our farm. This includes strict access control to all poultry houses, rigorous daily sanitation for all equipment and facilities, quarantine procedures for new or ill birds, and integrated pest and vector control to keep unwanted visitors away.
• Veterinary Oversight: Our dedicated veterinarian provides regular health checks, implements robust vaccination programs, and offers immediate responses to any health concerns, ensuring the ongoing well-being of our flock.
