About this statute

This section says the regulation covers animal welfare in hen keeping. This section defines terms used in the regulation, including hens, laying hens, broilers, chicks, nests, usable area, floor housing, enriched cages, and unenriched cages. Chicken housing and equipment must be built, cleaned, and maintained to minimize injury and disease risk, and some design limits apply. Hen houses must have safe ventilation, suitable temperature, appropriate lighting, low noise, and dry litter when used. Equipment and installations for hens must not risk injuring the birds, and they should make as little noise as possible. Feeding and drinking equipment must be placed so all hens can reach them and get enough feed and water.
