LAYERS
Incubation, hatching, and rearing
Facility organization to efficiently manage storage, incubation, and hatching phases, optimizing operational flows and plant management.
BEST PRACTICES
Correct stocking density per square meter
The stocking density per usable surface area is 9 birds per m² for conventional farming and 6 birds per m² for organic farming.
INCUBATION AND HATCHING: INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES
Integration of incubation technologies
Facilities are designed to accommodate incubators, hatchers, trolleys, and handling systems, ensuring proper layout, accessibility, and compatibility with the various solutions available on the market.
Rota Guido supports clients in selecting the most suitable technological solutions, providing technical guidance and selection criteria for the optimal integration of equipment according to production needs.
INCUBATION AND HATCHING: MICROCLIMATE
Control of the incubation microclimate
Facilities support advanced systems for ventilation, air distribution, heating, cooling, and humidification—key elements for maintaining uniform and stable conditions throughout all phases of the cycle.
During the design phase, the nest area is integrated consistently with the house ventilation system to avoid dead zones or air stagnation.
FROM HATCHING TO REARING
Continuity between hatching and rearing
Spaces are designed to ensure an efficient transition from the hatching phase to the rearing phase, reducing stress and management discontinuities.
GOOD REARING FOR EFFECTIVE LAYING
Consistent and long-lasting egg production
Around 17–19 weeks of age, pullets are transferred to the laying house. With proper adaptation to the environment (nests, perches, feeders, drinkers), they begin laying at an increasing rate until reaching peak production. Under optimal conditions, a selected laying hen can produce around 320–340 eggs per year, depending on genetic strain and management.
