- W4386002822 abstract "Floor egg laying can be a common problem for laying and breeder hens in cage-free housing systems. This is where hens lay eggs outside of the nest box, on the litter floor, slats, or tiered wire system. The causes of floor eggs are multifactorial which can make preventing floor egg laying behavior challenging and results in significant financial loss for egg producers. To better understand how floor eggs may be avoided, this literature review compiled information on factors that can affect the propensity of hens to lay floor eggs and management strategies that may prevent the undesirable behaviour from developing. The review included studies on factors affecting nest box use, genetic factors, rearing and early training factors, production cycle factors, and new technologies being developed for floor laying detection and management. The information available online in producer-aimed management documents was also compiled and ten egg producers within Australia were interviewed to understand current practices implemented within industry. Combined knowledge from multiple sources illustrated that floor eggs are manageable if the right strategies are implemented during the rearing period and when the birds first start laying their eggs. This is more challenging for egg producers that purchase point-of-lay birds and have limited control over rearing conditions. Understanding the behavior and needs of a particular hen strain or a particular flock is important given the multiple factors that can influence floor egg laying development. Floor egg laying may still develop if all causative factors are unable to be addressed." @default.
