Analyze

By combining gathered data and the expert knowledge of our team, we are able to analyze and recommend the right layer breed for your region, market, management and housing system (cage, barn, free-range). We are currently involved in a number of initiatives to enhance animal welfare standards. A special breeding program is in place to select social laying hens, i.e. laying hens that are selected from “social families”, reducing the need for beak treatment and to prevent feather pecking. But most important of all, to reduce the number of mortalities linked to feather pecking and cannibalism. During the past 2 decades, we have seen clear improvements in the livability of our layer breeds. We also work closely with academic partners to study accurate measures for animal health and welfare and to more accurately select birds in large groups.
