Egg Factory Transformation Shifts From Hen House Past
A Sidne y area venture by Rennie Nienhuser and Ed Narjes converts a rural hen yard into a modern egg factory. Two 32 by 132 foot houses hold about 4 000 hens each with air conditioning and automated cups for water. Weekly deliveries occur three times, and the operation aims for 6 000 eggs daily at peak. The piece notes the shift from traditional poultry to science driven, large scale production.
