Claims7
Arrangement for breeding poultry in cage batteries (1), having a grid base (8), which is formed by a flexible netting (9), is subdivided, seen in the longitudinal axis of each row of cages (2, 3, 4), into a sequence of individual sections (A, B, C) which are independent of one another, and excrement collecting devices arranged beneath each row of cages (2, 3, 4), characterized in that the excrement collecting device is designed as a conveyor belt (5, 6, 7) circulating in the longitudinal axis of the rows of cages (2, 3, 4) and the grid base (8) of each section (A, B, C) can be folded together from outside the cages allowing it to be actuated such that it exposes the conveyor belt (5, 6, 7) lying beneath.
