Breeding program

We have the world’s largest gene pool of traditional poultry where we select the best animals that are healthy and easy to raise. Each of our products have been bred for specific needs, depending on the region. Products bred for the Asian market are robust, feed efficient, and deliver a hearty, flavorful taste.

To ensure that the animals we select will be healthy and strong in a range of environments, we test our birds to evaluate the effect of climate, diet, and management style. In the breeding program of our colored layers, we have been looking at standard laying hens’ genetic traits for good egg performance, while maintaining their heritage and traditional poultry characteristics.

We also look at the right balance of traits so that our products are all-around performers. A number of our products are bred to lay eggs and produce meat for slaughter.
