Free-Range System
Free-Range Farming

The Free-Range Farming system allows hens to roam freely in a natural environment, providing them with access to fresh air and natural foraging. This method promotes healthier birds and higher-quality eggs due to the hens' exposure to sunlight and a varied diet. Kenz ensures that the free-range areas are safe and well-maintained, with proper shelter and protection from predators. This system supports animal welfare and promotes eco-friendly farming.
Free-range systems also contribute to a lower carbon footprint by minimizing the need for intensive resource usage, promoting a healthier and more sustainable farming model.

Battery Cage System

The Battery Cage System is a more intensive poultry farming method where hens are kept in individual small cages. This system ensures high productivity by maximizing the space used and controlling the environment for each bird. Kenz uses modern cage systems with automated feeding, watering, and waste management to ensure optimal hen health and egg production. While this system allows for efficient production, it is important to maintain animal welfare standards for a balance between productivity and hen care.

Battery Cage System
Barn System
Barn System (Deep Litter System)

The Barn System or Deep Litter System involves keeping hens indoors in a large open barn with a deep layer of bedding material (such as straw or wood shavings). This system provides hens with freedom to roam, scratch, and engage in natural behaviors. It is suitable for higher stocking densities while maintaining a healthier environment. Kenz ensures proper ventilation and sanitation to promote optimal hen health and egg quality, supporting sustainable egg production.
The deep litter system not only enhances hen welfare by providing them with a natural environment to express instincts but also plays a vital role in waste management by using litter to absorb and neutralize waste.

Colony Cage System

The Colony Cage System is a more spacious version of the traditional battery cage system, designed to house several hens together in larger cages. This system provides more room for hens to move, nest, and express natural behaviors while still maintaining a controlled environment. Kenz employs modern colony cage systems that enhance animal welfare while optimizing egg production efficiency. The system also allows for better biosecurity and disease prevention.
Colony cage systems improve egg production rates by optimizing space while offering a better balance between production efficiency and animal comfort, aligning with modern welfare standards.

Organic Egg Farming
Organic Egg Farming

Organic Egg Farming involves raising hens on organic feed without the use of synthetic pesticides, antibiotics, or hormones. This system emphasizes natural farming practices, with hens given access to outdoor areas for foraging and sunlight exposure. Kenz ensures that our organic farming methods meet the highest standards of animal welfare and sustainability. The eggs produced in this system are of superior quality, with a focus on healthier production and environmental sustainability.
Our organic egg farming methods not only result in higher quality eggs but also foster a more diverse and resilient farm ecosystem, enhancing biodiversity and soil health.
