I Focus on My Hens – They Take Care of the Rest
Since I’ve outsourced the flock administration, I have overview and peace of mind again. All barn data is checked for me, and every week I receive a clear report where I can see at a glance how my flocks are performing.
They show me:
– How my flock scores compared to ambitious goals
– The quality of my eggs compared to the requirements of the egg trader
– How my current flocks are doing compared to the best performing flock ever
– And I receive everything neatly organized in the flock tracker: feed changes, additives, treatments, you name it
Weekly, I join a short online meeting with all involved parties. Together we look at what’s going well and where adjustments are needed. Always with one goal: to improve my technical results.
I’m assisted in fine-tuning my goals – such as flock duration and eggshell quality – and receive strategic advice on the best approach. At the end of a cycle, I get a full analysis, including smart insights thanks to their unique calculation method.
What I also appreciate: I benefit from the best practices of other layer farmers. New ideas and improvements are shared with me immediately.
And the best part? I always remain in control. They provide independent support, think along with me, and provide insights – but I decide how we proceed.
Weekly, we discuss the technical figures of the Happy Chicken Farm (13 flocks at 7 locations) informally and casually via Teams. Thanks to Vincent’s careful preparation — who collects all the data and provides it in advance in clear, concise reports — I get a complete picture of the performance at all locations in a short time.
This approach offers enormous advantages:
– Total overview without having to visit locations myself.
– Efficient management of a large number of flocks spread across multiple locations.
– Data-driven decisions instead of gut feelings.
– Early identification of trends and making connections, allowing us to switch timely, for example with feed adjustments or take other actions to make corrections.
– Better collaboration because all involved parties always have access to the same up-to-date data in a timely manner.
This structured approach consistently leads to top results despite the large number of flocks and their geographical spread.
I am convinced that this is a very effective way to manage modern laying hens on a large scale. For companies that want to grow and sustainably improve their performance, I can highly recommend this approach.
A method that gives you a good weekly overview of how well each flock is performing compared to the norm and therefore allows you to react in good time if things are going a little less well.
This method allows you to compare all the data of your flocks correctly.
This provides information about which flocks perform relatively poorly compared to other flocks and therefore need more attention to bring these flocks up to a higher level. In short, a unique and clear method that improves performance!
