About Shaver

Shaver is the founding father of the Shaver breed, with a long history of more than 70 years. Our goal is to deliver highly efficient Parent Stock and laying hens with superior egg production to our customers. With strong Canadian roots, we are proud to provide trusted performance. As a leader in global poultry genetics, we are constantly improving the performance of our Shaver parent stock and the Shaver hens. Our Shavers are well known for very high numbers of hatching eggs combined with excellent hatchability, resulting in high levels of saleable day-old chicks of excellent chick quality. The final Shaver laying hens are efficient with a low feed intake, making the Shaver known as the money maker.
