Training of Pots chicken catchers

November 8, 2017

Last night we gave a poultry- welfare workshop to Pots chicken catchers near Zwolle. Roughly 15 catchers were present to learn about the physiology of poultry, and what to pay attention to during catching and loading in order to reduce stress and suffering. Afterwards we were at a commercial farm with them where they had been hired to catch and load all the spent hens. The first 30 minutes we had them practice the more humane EonA Dutch method of catching birds. The EonA Dutch method is max 2 birds at a time and only carried upright as opposed to the normal method of 3-4 birds per hand and held upside down by one leg. We are pressuring “humaner” egg companies to develop welfare criteria also for the manner in which birds are caught and loaded.

Rencontre. Si nous regardions les autres animaux avec nos yeux d'enfant, nous nous rappellerions quels êtres sensibles et uniques ils sont. ❤️

De Waal:”De moeder-kind band is tweehonderd miljoen jaren oud, die is op dezelfde manier geprogrammeerd bij de mens als bij de koe als bij allerlei andere zoogdieren.Dus het zou heel vreemd zijn dat een mens heel overstuur is als een kind weggenomen wordt en de koe níet!” #kalf

Hoe kan het dat ik zoveel van #dieren houd en ze ook opeet? Waarom eet ik geen paarden- of hondenvlees, maar wel kipfilet of een karbonaadje? Imke de Boer, hoogleraar aan de @WUR, schreef over deze vragen een boek. Ze vertelt erover in de studio @NPORadio1
