An integral conduit modular lighting system that has a light board having circuitry that is secured to a heat sink with an adhesive layer. The heat sink has a gasket in order to securely connect the lighting system to a preexisting conduit body such that the lighting system withstand a high pressure wash without leakage to the board. The heat sink also has opening that mate with openings of preexisting electrical conduit bodies to provide installation of the modular lighting system to existing electrical conduit bodies.

A poultry transport system and method involving at least one frame structure configurable for baseless suspension in which said system and method may include a frame structure top of a first frame structure engageable to a frame structure bottom of a second frame structure to form paired frame structures.

The present invention relates to a cover for a poultry container for holding live poultry, comprising: two substantially parallel guides; plural longitudinal supports, on opposite sides moveable connected to the guides; a flexible cover sheet, connected to the longitudinal supports; wherein the parallel guides are provided with preferred holding locations for preferred positioning of the longitudinal supports onto the guides. The invention also relates to a poultry container including such a cover as well as to a poultry container assembly of plural stacked poultry containers.

Stackable poultry container systems are described herein along with methods of using the systems in connection with the care of poultry. The stackable poultry container systems described herein may include feeder apparatus that allow for the distribution of feed to all of the containers within a stack of containers through the feeder apparatus provided in the uppermost container in the stack. The stackable poultry container systems described herein may include a floor that has waste apertures formed therein to allow waste from animals located in the container to fall through the floor to improve sanitation for the animals located in the container system. The stacks of poultry containers may include waste shields located beneath each floor such that waste falling through the floor of a container does not pass into the container located below when the containers are stacked on top of each other.

A cage connector for connecting two mesh panels of a poultry cage. The connector includes two elongated members which are hingedly connected together and which are releasably fastenable to each other, so that mesh parts from each panel are connected by placing the parts between the members and fastening the members to each other. At least one member has a tab which projects transversely to the longitudinal axis of the member in the same plane, or a plane parallel to the surface of the plane of the member

A reduced-weight poultry cage is used in conjunction with a reduced-weight trailer to transport live poultry for maximizing the poundage of poultry being transported while reducing the number of trips and fuel expenses. The poultry cage includes a combination of aluminum and plastic elements that reduce cage weight, provide for nesting of cages in stacks as well as easy replacement of failed parts. Furthermore, a drop-deck aluminum trailer with a reduced floor and guide rail alignment stops allows for a durable yet lightweight trailer that can haul a plurality of stacks of these poultry cages, thereby maximizing cubic feet availability while being compliant with various road and bridge laws.

A bird waste disposal device for a birdcage contains: a body and a holder which are removably connected together. The control module, an electrical cable, a motor control wire, a motor and a mixer are accommodated in the holder. The body is connected on the holder, the control module is accommodated in the holder, and power supplies to the control module via the electrical cable, wherein the control module controls the motor to rotate via the motor control wire, and the motor drives the mixer to revolve. Thereby, after birds discharge feces on the holder, the mixer is driven by the motor so as to mix the feces with sands in the holder, thus removing unpleasant smells and cleaning the feces.
