Ferdinandi: ”In my experience as a former purchaser of hatching eggs, eggs laid in laying nests from Jansen Poultry Equipment have by far the best quality. This is why I was set on getting systems from the Dutch poultry equipment supplier.” Eurotunnels, dealer of Jansen Poultry Equipment, led the project successfully.
Both houses are separated into two tiers by an integrated plywood floor. Each floor is equipped with a Comfort 2 aviary system. This system consists of multiple tiers and provides a good view of the hens and simplifies inspection. The system stimulates the natural behavior of the hens. Hens move through the entire system and have easy access to the integrated LayMaxx laying nests which offer a perfect environment to lay eggs. The AutoShov litter removal system easily removes excess litter and keeps the litter level low, preventing floor eggs.
The MultiFlex Elevator and FlexBelt transport eggs safely from the egg belt to the central collection area. The FarmPacker and Cobot palletizing robot ensure an automated and precise egg handling, ensuring the quality of the eggs.
Ferdinandi wanted a labor efficient solution for the handling of manure. Manure belts run automatically without need to activate it manually. Manure is transported out of the house to the manure drying system Compact. This systems enables a quick and energy efficient way of drying manure.
Poultry specialist Jan van den Brink guided Ferdinandi with the start-up of his flock. He made sure that all important factors for a maximum result were implemented. After a few weeks he visited Ferdinandi to check if the production was running smoothly. This is part of the service that Jansen Poultry Equipment has to offer.
