Abstract

Litterpedia brings together chicken bedding and litter management information for the Australian chicken meat industry in one, easily accessible location.

Chicken litter, or bedding, is an essential part of breeding and growing meat chickens. Litter in good condition—dry and friable—optimises chicken health and welfare, improving their growth and productivity.

Here you will find litter resources and tools for meat chicken growers and breeders including fact sheets, guides, videos and webinar recordings. There are also links to research project summaries and completed project final reports.

Topics covered include:
Litter selection
Litter assessment
Drinker management
