THE BROILER HATCHING EGG INDUSTRY IS A HIGHLY SPECIALIZED INDUSTRY THAT IS AT THE FOUNDATION OF CANADA'S CHICKEN INDUSTRY
In 2019, British Columbia produced over 10,245,000 dozen hatching eggs valued at over $57 million. That resulted in over 175 million kilograms of eviscerated chicken produced for consumption in our province.
British Columbia is the third largest hatching egg producing province supplying 15% of the Canadian market share.
The hatching egg producers throughout the province boast family owned farms and practice strict protocols for safe, healthy, happy birds.
