Big Dutchman
Manure Pit with Plastic Slats
FromBig Dutchman
Flexible setting up, an option for each house type. To improve the hygiene inside the house, part of the house should be used as manure pit and equipped with slats (where possible made of plastic). While the birds are inside the house, droppings can be stored and removed after each batch. The correct design (width and height) of the manure pit is especially important to make sure that the hens can easily reach the nest when they leave the litter area via the manure pit.
