Egg Management

Egg Management

Managing the egg collection, collection, egg room and egg process contributes to quality outcomes for market: such as egg cleanliness, egg quality, egg identification and overall effective, controlled outcomes.

Egg Equipment

Egg management products contribute to the outcome of the egg such as cleanliness, quality and appearance.

Investigate why eggs are dirty egg as this may be a symptom of a nesting system needing maintenance which may be cheaper to replace parts or replace than purchasing egg washing equipment. Dirty eggs can be reduced with the use of rollaway nest boxes or Avio colony nest.

Are eggs dirty when it’s raining? Astroturf or slatted walkways to dry and remove wet material from hen’s feet as they walk into the nest will assist.

Are the eggs dusty? Perhaps new egg belt is needed.

Trouble shooting and observation may save on expenses and avoid problems later.

Sanitouch

Whereas the Sanitouch is modular. Start with a washer, add a grader or buy a whole system.

Sanitouch model 5 with ramp in feed and 3 grade egg grader ( not as fancy but more cost effective.  If they buy a model 10 all that changes is the washer.

Sanitouch model 20 with full crate cross loader, and an extension for printers etc etc to go in ,this is more of a full system.  If you buy the model 10 , again all that changes is the washer.

Each Sanitouch has an LED candler, full system below has variable speed drive as well.
