Gerber Poultry is a producer of the finest grown broiler chickens. Our claims include raising chickens with a specialized feed formula that makes the chicken naturally better tasting and tender as compared to other brands. The feed and water program includes: NO meat or bone meal; NO fishmeal; NO bakery by-products; NO medicinal growth stimulants; NO antibiotics; NO hormones and NO additives containing arsenic or arsenic compounds. The feed formula is composed of a cereal grain and vegetable oil base with additional vitamins, minerals and amino acids added to aid in digestion and to provide proper balance for the chicken’s dietary needs.

The chickens are raised on family farms in Ohio’s largest Amish community. These Amish farmers tend to the chickens and provide excellent care. The buildings are large spacious barns providing plenty of room to roam. Fresh air, feed and water are always readily available. The comfort of the chicken is important; they receive constant attention as they grow.

Gerber Poultry has on file a letter of guarantee from our feed manufacturer stating that no antibiotics or medications are added to the feed. We also keep on file letters of verification from each farmer which states that no antibiotics or medications have been administered through either feed or water for any flock packed under the trademarked GERBER’S “Real Amish” Farm Country Chicken name.

The better poultry businesses, among which Gerber Poultry is one of the best, invest resources, time & study in the care, health and humane handling of its chickens. Our chickens are given plenty of free room to move and peck about in a controlled, clean environment with plenty of fresh air, plenty of fresh clean water and wholesome feed. They are raised in a healthy natural state. There is nothing in our facility processes which diminish that healthy natural quality.  We guarantee that nothing is added to enhance or adulterate GERBER’S “Real Amish” Farm Country Chicken™.

And we do guarantee a healthy & safe product.  In addition to following the best raising practices and only minimally processing our chickens, we also abide by the National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP) guidelines and test every flock for avian influenza. While this is an expensive process we view it simply as an additional step in our continual guarantee that the chicken we produce is safe and absolutely the best quality chicken on the market.
