[QUOTE="BBC, post: 8145843, member: 4074"] Game farms have been severely hit by the French export ban on pheasant and partridge eggs and poults due to avian flue, which has badly hit the area in France where most of the main gamebird suppliers are based. Apparently about 50% of low ground birds released each year in the UK are from eggs sourced from France and a lot of shoots are struggling to source poults. According to the Game Farmers Association in a normal year roughly 20 million pheasants and 10 million partridges are imported from France and instead of the normal 5-15p increase in the price of poults, this year it will be more likely 50-60p, before you add in increased labour and feed costs.
