1st generation egg farmers
What’s your favourite part of being an egg farmer?
“I love the profession of egg farming. Our whole family is involved, from my kids to my grandkids and my wife Brenda and I feel very fortunate to be involved in a business where we get to work alongside our family. We love eggs and the fact that we get to work seven days a week to provide them to others who love them.”
How do egg farmers use technology on their farms?
“We take university courses in order to keep up with the technology. Egg Farms are fully computerized, it let’s us know the temperature of our egg room, barn and how much feed and water the hens are consuming. We as egg farmers really care about farm safety, we have different regulations that we abide to and on farm safety programs that are ongoing all the time.”
