The Tauzin family raises poulardes, poulettes, and guinea fowl, all of which are corn-fed on maize grown on their own farm. Their birds are a unique breed called "Counu" or "naked neck," originating from Africa and traditional in the Landes area. These hardy birds are slow-growing, producing succulent yet firm meat that is full of flavor.

For their final five weeks, the birds are finished on a diet of whole maize and milk, similar to a capon. This develops a layer of fat between the skin and flesh, as well as delicious marbling. The slow sugars in this diet turn to fat and give the skin a beautiful color. The result is a perfect roasting bird, featured in the "Ultimate Roast Chicken Menu" by three-star Michelin chef Hélène Darroze at The Connaught.
