  • Summary

  • A huge part of hen welfare is the health of the flock. Caged farming systems seem like prisons to many people but they were actually developed to make hens healthier. Now, with hens moving back outdoors, some of the health challenges from 50 years ago are re-emerging. 


    The farmers at Days Eggs know the trade-offs involved in hen welfare well—they operate caged, barn laid and free range farms in South Australia. Join Wendy Hargreaves as she visits Managing Director Dion Andary and Welfare Officer Jess Spencer, and learns about hen health in all farming systems.
