March 23, 2021

Last Tuesday evening an Eyes on Animals team supervised and gave instructions during the upright catching of 23.000 laying hens at one of Kipsters’ laying-hen farms, in Beuningen.

This of course is far too cold for the pigs, especially with the wind chill when … [Read more...] about Inspection of pig trucks during cold weather
