With the HatchCare basket the separation process takes place in an animal-friendly way in the hatcher itself. The result:
Less stress
More animal-friendly production
Maximum efficiency
Minimum cross contamination
Fewer antibiotics
Thanks to early feeding, the chicks can optimally utilise the residual yolk sac. This gets development of the immune system off to a flying start. The result:
Residual yolk sac acts as a natural antibiotic
Lower antibiotic use
Lower production costs
Growth during transport
The chicks stay in the HatchCare basket during transport. So even after pull, the chicks still have access to light, feed and water. The result: ·
Chicks keep growing during transport
At a rate of 0.5 gram per hour!
Stronger and healthier chicks on arrival
Considerably fewer DOAs.
No chick counter required
The number of unhatched eggs is very easy to count in the HatchCare basket. The result:
