Video: An Enriched Barn Renovation with Planeview Farms

Canada has made a commitment to hen welfare and is phasing out conventional cages, replacing them with innovative enriched housing, or cage-free housing. By 2036 all conventional cages will have been replaced.

Making the transition from conventional cages to a different type of housing is not a simple process. Often, the older barns need to be replaced entirely, but sometimes they can be retrofitted to accommodate a new housing type.

Planeview Farms invited us onto their farm to take a look at what’s involved in transitioning an older barn to new, enriched housing. Watch as they take us inside their renovation!
