NATURA 60 is Big Dutchman’s innovative type of aviary for layers. The design concept is based on the idea to improve bird welfare of the flock, and also the cage-free environment. It offers quality space for each hen to act out their natural behaviors, such as perching, dust bathing, foraging, nesting, exploring and other social behaviors.The multi-tier system features doors which allow birds in and out of the system through defined locations and at selected times. It is a very popular option for excellent egg production figures and ease of management.
The NATURA 60 & 70 system designs are very similar, and share many features, with the main difference being the NATURA 70 is wider with more usable space, a deeper nest, and all internal feed troughs, which allow for more birds per running foot of the system than the NATURA 60.
