Manure Belt Battery Cages for Rearing Breeders

The UV-S 500+ is a battery cage system specifically designed for the rearing of breeders for broiler production. The battery cages consist of two different areas – the start tier and the grow tier – each offering a specific space for differing bird sizes.

Feed and water supply, along with manure removal is in-built to this system to ensure uniform growth and a hygienic environment for the birds. These cages can also be configured to different layouts or tiers with simple assembly fit for any farm setting.
