Cage-free housing
Birds thrive in environments that allow natural behaviours. Welfare in cage-free systems varies widely and must be addressed through management practices, genetic selection, further research, and the appropriate design and maintenance of housing environments.
Increase animal welfare with the right bird management, reducing costs and increasing profitability.
Ruth Harrison, a British animal welfare activist and author, published Animal Machines in 1964, highlighting the conditions of intensive poultry and livestock farming. In response, the UK government established a research commission led by Professor Roger Brambell to investigate the welfare of intensively farmed animals. This led to the formulation of Brambell’s Five Freedoms, which outline essential animal welfare needs:
Following this, the Farm Animal Welfare Advisory Committee was established to monitor the livestock production sector and promote these Five Freedoms among veterinarians and animal welfare organizations.

It might seem challenging to teach hens to jump, fly, perch, or lay eggs in a nest. However, these are natural behaviours for birds, as seen in the ancestors of domestic hens. A successfully reared chick will easily navigate through an aviary poultry house.
In an aviary system, birds can move freely and express their natural behaviours more effectively, enhancing their welfare. They can scratch and dust bathe in the litter area, sleep on perches, lay eggs in safe, dark nests, and eat and drink within the system. Allowing birds to explore their natural behaviours minimizes stress-related issues like feather pecking.
There are many ways to handle manure in aviary and nest houses. We believe in maximizing efficiency for both the chickens and the farmer.
To further optimize natural behaviour in aviary and nest systems, it’s crucial to consider feeding and drinking systems, as well as perches. Perfectly matching a hen’s needs will help her feel at ease, allowing her to focus on what she does best: laying eggs.

The best insights into how cage-free housing systems work come from the farmers who use our systems daily.
In 2016 they took advantage of the growing trend towards cage-free systems. They opted for the 3-tier Bolegg Gallery because of the features and advantages it offered. They were pleased with the performance of the system and the results were better than expected.
“An aviary is not the same as cages. You should always choose an aviary that already has some previous experience. In other words, it has to be a well tested system.”
