When we started breeding chicken, we were told that the chickens did not need space to run freely. “Chickens live where you put them down, they don’t need a lot of space,” said the expert. Then we painted a blue spot on the back of a chicken so we could recognize it. We put it down in the stable to see what it did… It did not stand still! No, chickens like to run around and need plenty of space!
Therefore, our chickens have plenty of room to move around in the chicken stables. The standard in Europe is about 42 kg of chicken per square meter. In Sweden, as a member of the Swedish Bird Association, you can breed 36 kg of chicken per square meter.
