Rearing system

Years of experience have proven that proper pullet rearing is the foundation of successful cage-free egg production. That is because better-trained birds will live longer, healthier and more productive lives. This is where Chore-Time offers a huge advantage to producers. Our Volution rearing system requires less labor and is easier to manage than other competitive systems. It caters to natural bird behavior by training pullets to jump, move around and perch from day one, optimally preparing them for both aviary systems and floor layer production.

Labor-Saving Design

Every aspect of the Volution system is designed for minimal labor requirements. The need for bird management labor is minimized, which reduces overall production costs.

Double Sliding Doors

Unique double sliding doors allow workers to easily reach birds for vaccination or other purposes. The doors also provide secure containment of the pullets during the startup phase.

Highly Adjustable Design

A flexible design allows producers to adjust the Volution rearing system as the pullets grow. Specific features include:

• Adjustable-height platforms and drinking lines inside the system that are gradually raised as the pullets grow.
• Automatically extendable perches that help birds access the upper tier.
• Movable interior perch helps birds jump to an outer perch more easily.

Wire Mesh Fences

When the house is first populated, foldable wire mesh fences close off the area underneath the rows. Eventually, the fences are opened to give birds full access to the entire floor are of the hous, including underneath the system rows.
