Table Birds

Sometimes even more striking than the demand for free range eggs is the demand from consumers and supermarkets for table birds reared in environments where they can express their natural behaviours.

Halo Mobile steel framed houses provide the absolute best welfare friendly accommodation for table birds.

Halo Ranger - The Ranger offers accommodation for any flock size between 500 to 4000 table birds.
Halo Mini Ranger - The house of choice for organic, small scale production or specialist producers. Typically, the Halo Mini Ranger will house up to 500 table birds
Halo Maxi Ranger - The Maxi-Ranger provides a 12m mobile house – providing accommodation with an airy, well ventilated large air space
Halo Mini Discovery - A small scale building built to resemble a traditional ark, but providing modern and very welfare friendly accommodation for small flocks of table birds. This house is ideal for producers producing a specialist bird that needs to be reared to the absolute best standards

Benefits of the system

Mobile buildings located in the natural landscape and centred within the range paddock
Low disease pressure with buildings moved and cleaned between flocks
Low cost and designed to be friendlier for neighbours and planners than fixed buildings
Creating an environment where the birds can roam freely within a large paddock, but be housed in an insulated, well ventilated, clean and safe building

What to consider?

In the UK standards are governed by the organisation Freedom Foods (see www.freedomfoods.org). Standards will vary depending on whether you wish to produce table birds to organic or conventional standards, the organic association with which you might be members, the supermarket supplied or any other criteria set down by the marketing company or end consumer that you sell your table birds to.
