Don’t Waste It!
For fifty years BIG DUTCHMAN CHAIN has been carrying feed to chickens.
And for fifty years poultry equipment companies, including Big Dutchman,
have tried to find a better way. There isn’t one...only other ways
If you are a poultryman who is tiring of “pie in the sky” claims of
extra cage rows per house and truckloads of feed savings...
then look to Big Dutchman, the leader in poultry cage equip
ment systems. Take a “hands on” look at time-tested fully
proven cage systems, to find out why producers are continually
putting layers into new Big Dutchman installations. Then
look to the really successful poultiy
farms world wide and you will find Big
Dutchman Chain carrying the load.
