Feed trough for poultry cages, especially pullet cages

摘要

In a feed trough for poultry battery cages, particularly chick breeding cages, comprising a trough channel with a feed conveyor running therein and with a grid disposed thereabove, provision is made for each grid to consist of grid bars extending parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the trough channel and joined to one another only in their end regions. The end regions of the grid are bent over towards the channel opening. The cross connections provided for the grid bars are end plates which can be laid against partitions laterally bounding a cage. The grid is in the form of a part which can be inserted into the trough channel.
