As organic egg producers, we are deeply committed to ensuring the animal welfare and to providing our hens with the best possible living conditions.
Below, you will find our latest video showing the surroundings and the life of our organic egg layers. Enjoy!
At Månsson we raise white-feathered egg layers. This breed of this hen is highly suitable for organic farming as it is robust and can adapt well to the frequent weather changes typical of the Danish climate. They also consistently produce eggs and thrive within in our organic free-range production system.
Our hens exhibit a nice and quiet behaviour, and they are curious by nature. Originating from forest-dwelling birds we’ve designed all our free-range areas as a wooded environments, with willow and poplar trees planted throughout. This natural setting offers our hens security from birds of prey, and it is a daily delight to witness them venture out in small groups, finding joy beneath the sheltering trees.
Nutritious forage for healthy and happy hens
In addition to the indoor an outdoor space we provide, our hens receive a daily supply of homegrown organic forage. The roughage includes clover, pea/barley, pea/lupine, and corn, which not activates our hens but also promotes their overall health and digestion.
Active participation in organic farming experiments
We actively engage in various experiments and studies related to organic farming.
