When it comes to broilers, our target is to make the birds to gain as much weight as possible at given time, with the most efficient feed composition. In order to achieve this target we have to provide the birds optimal conditions. We are constructing the houses in different concepts, according to the clients’ needs and due to local conditions.

Construction of the house is following one of three concepts

Curtain building.

Half insolated panel and curtain.

Full insolated panel.

Equipment

Feeding system

The feed Hopper Bin, produced by C.T. insures long life to the equipment. The hopper bins installed outside the house, and a Flex Auger conveyor leads the feed inside. The size of the hopper bin is determined by the quantity and the period we want to stock the feed. The flex auger is made out of PVC tubes, while the auger itself is made out of steel. The size of it is determined by quantity of feed we plan to deliver in given time.

In order to raise broilers we use one of the following: C-2+S, H-2, Revolution 12. We select the type of pans needed in accordance with the farmer and his desires.

Pan C-2+ (or Pan C-2+S) is a pan that operates once it reaches the floor. It is then opened to enable free flow of feed for chicks, conveniently, thru side-windows. When the pan is lifted, so is the windows latching, and the feed starts to flow from an opening at the pans bottom cone, an outlet that can be regulated easily. In this way, we prevent feed loss in one hand, and let chicks eat in convenient way on the other.

The H-2 Pan is very convenient for chicks. When at the first period we allow chicks to eat from the side-windows, at the second period they are allowed to eat from under the cone. The special design of the pan prevents feed loss. In this pan feeder, there is no grill, so birds can eat freely.

The Revolution 12 pan feeder is the newest pan developed, designed for maximum convenience for the farmer while preserving the benefits for the birds from previous pans.

Advantages of the Revolution 12 pan include

Comfort. The scalloped grill and low pan height makes chicks eat easily from the perimeter, while mature birds reach generous portions of feed without stretching.

The unique edge of the pan, grill ring and anti-rake fins keep more feed within the pan and prevent incoming litter.

Whether the pan is hanged or laid on the floor, the flow and level of feed in controllable by the sure click actuator system, which controls dozens of feeders simultaneously with just one click.

Feeding Tubes

We supply feeder tubes with flippers all along the tube. These flippers strengthening the tube and facilitate the adjustment of the system. The system insures longer life for the equipment.

We can supply the tube in three different lengths, of 9′, 10′ and 12′, with varsity of pans in order to optimize the equipment to the chicks, and according to the size of the building.

At the feeding line starting position, or at the middle, we should install a hopper that will stock the feed designated for the line. The hoppers’ volume is determined by the birds’ needs. This hopper would be filled within operation, while the birds are eating.

At the end of each line, we shall install a control unit that would stop the auger from moving when all of the pans are filled.

The height of the feeding line is adjusted by either manual or electric lifting system, according to the birds needs.

Water supply

The water supply to broilers is being delivered by either Nipple Drinkers or by Bell Shaped Drinkers. Their quantity is determined along with the amount of birds being raised.

Nipple drinkers are being supplied from Plasson, Val or Chore Time, decided by the farmer. Bell shaped drinkers are being supplied from Plasson.

The main water line runs into the house from the outside, by either of these two options:

Water reservoir, mounted on top of a water tower. In this option, we are holding to large quantities of water at any given time to insure correct supply to the house. The reservoir is automatically filled while the birds are drinking.

Flow supply directly from the main line, passing through a regulation system. We still house some reservoirs on the floor, in order to have secured water supply. A pump would automatically start working if water were not flowing from the main water line.

Heating systems

In order to supply the right conditions to the birds we use one of these three heating options:

Space heaters: Those space heaters provide homogenous temperature in the house.

Tube heaters: Those tube heaters use infrared heating system, and placed along the house, they are enabling the birds much convenience.

Gas Brooders: This system enables us to raise birds in limited spaces.
