NEW from
CHORE-TIME
20” deepSSS curtain back
cage layer system
Get The Only New Technology Available For Cage Systems
Chore-Time’s new 20” deep SSS 4-high system puts 33%
more birds into the same row lengths as old style 3-high
systems - without dropping boards and without a need
for greater building width. That means at 6 birds per
16”x20” cage (53.3 square inches) a 52’x536’ building
can house over 108,000 birds.
But, just as important, with this Chore-Time system
you also don’t have to sacrifice the features and
benefits you’ve come to expect from Chore-Time;
single file egg belt, our all galvanized, SOFT TOUCH 1
II egg collection, a gentle cage floor slope to prevent
checks and cracks...rugged A-frame cage support and
legs every 4 feet to protect against cage sag and trough
