The basic concept of an aviary is a multi-level system that provides feed, water, and a nest. The configuration of these necessities and additional features makes each aviary system unique.
After 85 years of business in the poultry industry, Big Dutchman is excited to introduce our latest technology and patent-pending solutions to the market. These innovations will first be rolled out at this year’s International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE) trade show.
Lighting is a crucial component to properly managing any poultry housing system. It’s even more crucial when managing a cage-free layer house. Our goal is well-trained pullets and layers that go back into the system at night so that, when the time comes, they lay their eggs in the nest instead of on the floor.
The first egg farm to produce carbon-neutral eggs in the United States is now officially completed, a project that has been years in the making – and Big Dutchman is so excited to have been part of helping it all come together.
Poor air quality in a cage-free house affects not only the birds but also the workers. Neither people nor birds enjoy being in a house with strong smells, hot temperatures, wet litter, or dusty conditions.
The most labor-intensive part of rearing cage-free pullets is release and training. Let’s first discuss why pullet release training is important. Almost everything we do in the pullet barn is to train the pullets to be better hens once they enter the layer barn.
