This is Ozbargain not Ozethics.
It's not a battery hen. They are for eggs. Meat birds live a better life. Not perfect, but better.
I'm not making another comment.
You need to pull your head out of the sand and look at the facts.
It is illegal to use steroids on chickens in Australia.
Antibiotics are only used after all other avenues for fighting infections have been tried. There is also a waiting period before chicken is slaughtered if they have had antibiotics administered.https://lenards.com.au/facts/hormones-steriods-antibiotics-c…
"Hormones, Steroids & Antibiotics in Chickens
Hormones & SteroidsAustralia has one of the most efficient chicken meat producing and processing industries in the world, but there are still many misconceptions about what has led to a bigger and plumper chicken than 20 years ago. No hormones or steroids are fed or otherwise administered to poultry in Australia. Lenard’s is only supplied chicken from Australian based companies, selling 100% Australian poultry.
By regulation, no hormones or steroids are administered to chickens under any circumstance. Contrary to urban legend, the administration of hormones to chickens both in Australia and around the world has been illegal for over 40 years. The government’s National Residue Survey regularly tests meat to confirm that hormones are not used. Advertising that claims ‘no added hormones’ is not differentiating its product, but instead stating an industry-wide regulation.
Antibiotics
Chicken meat produced in Australia is healthy and nutritious, and eating it does not expose consumers to either antibiotic residues, or bacteria resistant to antibiotics used in human medicine. This is because, firstly, antibiotics are used in a way that ensures the meat is free of residues. Withholding periods, designed to ensure there is no residue left in the meat at the time of processing, are observed at all times.
Secondly, antibiotics are used in a prudent way to minimise the development of resistance. It should also be noted that any bacteria which may be on raw meat, whether resistant to antibiotics or not, are killed through normal cooking. The Australian Chicken Meat Federation endorses the use of antibiotics in chickens in two important ways. 1. Therapeutic agents – used to treat bacterial infection. 2. Preventative agents – used to prevent disease occurring in healthy animals.
Antibiotic use generally occurs only after other management strategies have been unsuccessful. The birds are inspected by vets before and after antibiotic administration and a withholding period is enforced prior to processing those chickens administered with antibiotics. Only antibiotics assessed and approved for use in the livestock industries by the National Health and Medical Research Council and the National Registration Authority are used.
Chicken Meat Federations Consumer Information Line
The Chicken Meat Federation’s Consumer Information Line – Chook Infoline – was established in 2006 to help answer consumer questions about chicken meat and the chicken meat industry in Australia. The Chook Infoline aims to address some of the myths and misconceptions about how chickens are raised in Australia – with answers provided in a convenient and contemporary way.
This is in line with the industry’s aim to be completely open about its practices, as it engages in world ‘best practice’ for the raising, growing and processing of chickens. 1300 4 CHOOKs (1300 424 665) is available from 9am – 5pm EST and is answered by specially trained operators. Callers may also be provided with industry policies on important issues like antibiotics or GM feed. They may also be directed to the industry website for more information on www.chicken.org.au"
its unfortunate but factory farming is necessary to feed a population of 7 billion and their insatiable demand for meat. I applaud those who are vegetarians and vegans for ethical reasons but the evil of factory farming is not banal but rather a consequence of the existence of man.
Actually it's not, it just keeps the price low enough to keep sales high and the profits higher.
Where is Jindurra Station exactly?
One can only imagine the inhumane living conditions Aldi chickens live in at "broad Oak farms" for Aldi to sell this at just $3 a kilo. Poor chooks
Coles or Woolworths had $3 a Kilo chickens a few months back from Steggles.
The same place woolies and coles get their chicken…
Yeah…. no one cares. Enjoy that delicious cheap chook and don’t be a sook ;P
The Rump deal has bee going for a while. Great for Slow/Pressure cooking, or pound the meat with a mallet, really tenderises it. Throw it on the BBQ, don't overcook, and nobody will know any better.
I think I'll buy some, slice it into 40mm steaks and sous vide it for about 3 hours. It should be delicious!
Their rump steak is really good for homemade pies. at $10/kg its about the same price as mince.
i noticed they dropped the price of frozen berries $3.69 -> $3.49 and chopped frozen spinach (which i assume is chinese) from $0.99 -> $0.89
Spinach=made in Belgium.
Sorry, just can't beat Aldi."made in belgium from local and imported ingredients"
i'm guessing it is from china and they are trying to avoid the stigma of china on their labelling.
I had one of these chickens last week. It was not good to be honest, I spiced it up as I usually do to make a good roast chook and it was still tasteless. It's worth it to spend a bit more to get a better chook from Coles or Woolies.

What makes the chickens that Coles/Woolies sell any better/different?
I don't know really, could be the age of the chickens. I just commented to share my experience as i had a Coles brand one a few weeks ago that was great.
Afaik Hazeldene's supply Aldi. Coles also receive supplies from Hazeldene along with Steggles and Ingham.
And woolworths..
Thanks AldiNerd.
Are these better quality than the steggles chickens you get for the same price once every month or so at woolworths/coles?
No. They got their throat slit with the same blade.
Does anyone know who supplies Aldi's Broad Oak chickens?
For how long does this apply?
I noticed it on their website on the weekend, I'm not sure if it will still be there tomorrow.I saw an ad on tv about it today which is why I posted it as a deal, so I would be surprised if it wasn't available tomorrow.
Yes thanks, you're probably right.
The website isn't clear, it has these linksSuper Savers
Special Buys Wed 20 June
Special Buys Sat 23 JuneI don't know why it doesn't have a date for the super savers.
These arent super savers specials, they are monthly meat specials so it is not advertised on their website really.
This goes for most brands but look into how they wash the chicken.
Most brands use chlorine washing, of which a certain % is absorbed by the meat, and other that use chlorine free methods.
Bannockburn is one of the only brands i know of that dont use chlorine during processing.
Can I nato strap this sucker?
