Evaluation of Physical Egg Quality Parameters of Commercial Brown Laying Hens Housed in Five Production Systems

ANIMALS, 13(4).

By: B. Alig n, R. Malheiros n & K. Anderson n 

author keywords: egg quality; brown egg layers; Haugh unit; shell color; free-range; cage-free; enrichments
TL;DR: This study found that free-range eggs had superior egg quality parameters while, in most cases, eggs from both colony cages had inferior quality parameters, indicating that, as the egg industry moves toward greater adoption of extensive environments, egg quality will improve for brown egg layers.
