The red-legged partridge, with its orange breast and red beak is one of the most attractive small game birds in the country. All our partridges are supplied whole and unprocessed, with plumage checked for condition before dispatch. Birds supplied outside the main season will have been previously frozen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smaller size makes partridge especially practical for bushcraft sessions with younger participants. Scout leaders and school groups regularly choose it as an introductory bird because it is easy to handle with confidence. For taxidermy and photography, the feather detail on a well-conditioned partridge stands up well to close-range work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: as this bird has not been processed by our butchery, we are unable to undertake our usual quality control checks on the meat. It will arrive with traces of blood on the plumage. The vast majority of birds are in excellent condition, but customers purchasing for consumption should be aware that we cannot guarantee meat quality as we would with our oven-ready range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoice of shot\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer two options: standard lead shot has long been the traditional choice for game birds, or our recently introduced eco-friendly option.
