    This is the first time we've tried cockerel & we were not disappointed. It was succulent to eat, a lovely flavour & plenty to go round. Finally going into a curry. Very pleased.

    Absolutely delicious and really good firm texture. We loved it! Thank you Copas! We always order a turkey from you but this is the first free range cockerel we have had.

    We had the bird for Easter Sunday dinner. It was truly delicious.-moist and full of flavour. We have got plenty left over and have made stock for soup.
    I am very happy to buy meat from a company that takes the welfare of their animals so seriously.

    As always true to their word Copas has managed to deliver in times of crisis on time and accommodated via their delivery carrier APC an outstanding product.

    The chicken itself was a game changer and very delicious and moist.

    Even writing this now makes me drool .. it was like having a CopasTurkey .. excellent!!!

    Cockerel

    Published by Unknown on 18th Apr 2020

    I’m afraid for a higher welfare bird I was horrified that it had a broken leg and one breast was badly bruised and had a bleed that once cooked was so distressing we could not eat the bird. I fed it to my dogs. It was not what I would have expected from a high welfare bird. The meat was not very tasty either. I’ve had much better from our local butcher. I will not be using Copas again.

    REPLY: We are sorry that your cockerel was not up to our usually exacting standards and ask that you get in touch. It is important to us that 100% of our customers are happy but we need to know who you are to be able to resolve this.

    Deeeelicious

    Published by Yolanda Sinclair on 18th Apr 2020

    Never had a cockerel before but decided to try this for Easter and we were so pleased we did. It was possibly the best chicken we have ever eaten! We had read some reviews of cockerels (not just from Copas) and people had said it could be slightly tough or strongly flavoured. But this one, from Copas had a both a great taste and texture.
    Highly recommend and will definitely buy again.

    This year for various reasons we decided to have a change from Turkey. So we thought we would try a Chicken. We were not disappointed, a very enjoyable change a quality product.
