CAPON FOR THE YULETIDE SEASON

Here are some important details about Pamora Capon... a true Free-range Capon... :)
At 35 days or 5th weeks of age, its time to castrate the cockerels... Aw! But yes, the method of Capon is by castration. First to consider is the preparation of the cockerels for the operation, like in human, a procedure is also set. In our practice as I've trained in France, a week preparation is set prior to the operation day. It is not true that any young male chicken can be castrate at any given time. For a successful operation, the patient should be well prepared :)
After castration, we have to closely monitor our patients :)  They are set back on the range after 2 weeks of natural recovery and wound healing, then its free-range until 6 months.
Notice on this photo, the comb of this 6 months old Capon is not develop compare to one rooster that is not castrated...
A visual sign of a real Capon :)

A normal rooster has big comb and large wattles as shown on this photo in our farm. 
A normal rooster grown big just for weight doesn't have the same characteristics of Capon. Not the same taste at all! 

Pamora Free-range Capon are grown 6 months. Fed with yellow corn, lots of of grass in the range areas that are free from pesticides and other chemical inputs and all organic vegetables grown inside Pamora Farm, and given fresh clean potable water everyday!



This supreme product of Pamora Farm is not just any product. Pamora Capon is like Kobe Beef of Japan... A Ferrari or Rolls Royce among cars... Iranian Oscietre Caviar among Caviars... French Black Truffles du Perigord among mushrooms... Its an art of production with the heart and passion of the producer :)

AND SO... VOILA!!!
For your Special Christmas Celebration with your love ones, family and friends...
Enjoy a Pamora Capon!
