NATURA Life - The combined aviary system for rearing and egg production

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The NATURA Life concept is a combined aviary system developed by Big Dutchman in collaboration with Claessens-Jenniskens Pluimveebedrijven. It integrates rearing and egg production phases, allowing birds to remain in the same group throughout their lives, emphasizing welfare, health, productivity, and sustainability.

System Overview
The system features a cage-free laying aviary that can be expanded with additional equipment for rearing. This approach eliminates the need for transportation between rearing and production phases, reducing stress for both farmers and birds.

Advantages

Birds can start as hatching eggs or day-old chicks and remain in the same environment for life.
Eliminates the need for moving birds between rearing and laying houses, minimizing stress.
Ensures uniform hygiene conditions, reducing infection risks.
The aviary design supports optimal egg production without disadvantages.

Development and Exploration
Chicks meet their basic needs of feed, water, and fresh air immediately after hatching. By three weeks, they begin exploring the aviary, and by 10 weeks, they develop into pullets, reaching laying maturity by 28 weeks.

Contact Information
Big Dutchman provides contact details for various regions, including the USA, Brazil, Russia, Asia/Pacific, China, and Europe, Middle East & Africa, for further inquiries and support.
