Lighting and ventilation are used to assist with the behavior and comfort of the birds. Headlamps are worn by the operators to help assess the status of the birds. Heated floors ensure warm, comfortable conditions for the birds and the workers. Operators may be involved in activities which includes barn cleaning and upkeep, providing and checking that proper feed and water is available for the hens, collection of floor eggs, gathering and drying the manure for use in fertilizer productions or maintenance of the aviary, cage and manure and egg belt systems.
