Hatchery to Harvest


Specially selected rainbow trout are hatched in a new state of the art hatchery facility which provides the fry for our supplier farms.  Juvenile trout require very controlled water and light conditions and are transferred on to the farms as fingerlings (10g fry) at around 5 months old. It takes, on average, another 2 years to grow the trout to harvest weight of 3 - 3.5kg. 



Fit and Lean

The quality of the trout produced for Chalkstream® is directly related to the high flow rates and the quality of the water in the farms that gives our fish a unique clean taste. Slow grown in fast flowing pure chalk stream water, our trout are raised in conditions similar to wild river trout. Coupled with a higher protein, lower oil diet this produces a lean, well defined trout low in fat.



High Welfare

Chalkstream® is a member of the RSPCA Assured scheme and only sourced from farms that are RSPCA Assured.  Since a welfare report in 2021, the farms have worked closely with the RSPCA to ensure all fish handling and harvesting procedures are maintained to the highest standards.
The RSPCA standards ensure all animals are reared, transported and slaughtered under higher welfare conditions and have everything required for a better life. For more details about the scheme click here RSPCA Assured.
