Our chicken is neither organic nor Krav-certified. We don't want it to be. Instead, we have chosen a different path which we believe is more in line with how we want to work in the long term. If we were to raise organic chicken, we would have to use fishmeal in the starter feed for the birds to get all the nutrients they need and be healthy.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>For us, it's about making conscious choices, staying close to our raw materials, and working in a way that we can be proud of every day.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

If we were to have organic chicken, we would also be forced to import a lot of organic feed, and we would prefer to have Swedish feed. For us, it's important to have good insight into how the raw materials are produced and that they come from suppliers we know well. Our chickens therefore eat a completely vegetable-based GMO-free feed based on maize grown in southern Sweden and locally grown grain. This gives us control over the entire chain from field to feed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

SWEDISH CLIMATE IS NOT VERY OUTDOORs-FRIENDLY<\/h3>

The Swedish climate shifts rapidly between cold, rain and wind for much of the year. When the chickens go outside, their legs and feet become damp. This moisture is then carried into the coop bedding by the chickens, which can easily become corrosive and damage the birds' feet and legs. We don't want this to happen. Our birds should have good foot health, and they do today.

One of the tools we use to monitor the welfare of our chickens is foot scoring. For each flock, our veterinary assistants assess the chickens' feet. A score of zero is the best result, while 200 points is a poor result. The foot scores for our flocks are generally zero or close to zero. Thanks to this, our birds are active and move around the entire house freely. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

With infections in circulation come risks<\/h3>

Outdoor staying also brings significant risks of various infections, such as bird flu, campylobacter, and salmonella. In recent years, bird flu has been very active in Sweden. During periods of bird flu, outdoor staying for chickens is not permitted, sometimes in different zones and sometimes across the whole of Sweden.

\nWe want to expose neither the chickens nor our customers to risks. We have therefore chosen to invest in a good indoor environment with nearly twice as much space per bird compared to what is required. Ventilation, air quality, temperature, water, and feed are controlled via computer. Should anything be wrong, staff are immediately alerted. We visit every stable twice a day and check the chickens and the environment to ensure the birds are doing well.
