REMOVABLE RODENT CAGE DIVIDER
An improvement for an animal cage is disclosed. The animal cage may include a first, second, third and fourth vertical wall, each of which is connected to a floor on a first end and includes a top rim opposite to the first end. The improvement includes a support structure and a removable divider. The support structure includes at least one slot, is positioned above the floor and may be connected adjacent to the top rim of the first and second vertical walls. The removable divider is inserted into the slot and extends vertically away from the floor. A snap-fit connection detachably connects the divider to the support structure.

SLOW FEEDER FOR FEEDING FORAGE TO AN EQUID
A slow-feeder for feeding forage to an equid includes a container to hold the forage. The slow-feeder includes a feeding restrictor that is provided in the container on the forage, and that has apertures through which the equid extracts the forage from the container. The slow-feeder includes straps that connect the feeding restrictor to the container, that provide tension between the feeding restrictor and the container, and that permit the feeding restrictor to translate within the container in a vertical direction.
EQUINE SLOW-FEEDER FOR SIMULATING GRAZING BEHAVIOR
An equine slow-feeder comprises an external frame defining an internal cavity for receiving baled hay, at least one openable door for loading the hay, and a set of trolley tracks sloping downward toward the middle of the internal cavity. A feed-through grid panel, movably coupled to the trolley tracks via trolley wheel assemblies, is configured to compress the hay under its weight as it rolls inward due to gravity, exposing portions of the hay through narrow feeding spaces to regulate equine animal feeding. A low hay sensor is configured to send a notification in response to the baled hay in the internal cavity being diminished to a point requiring loading additional hay into the internal cavity within a predetermined amount of time.
Hay-bale-containment system and methods of use
What is disclosed pertains to an improved hay-bale-containment device to be used to store discrete bales of hay, alfalfa, or other grasses/grains to be used for livestock. The device consists of a corrosion-resistant frame with a bottom bed that with legs to elevate any bale of livestock feed stored thereon above the ground and to allow exposure of the bottom of the bale to fresh air to keep the bale dry and fresh. The general framing design of the device is designed to help secure bales disposed therein, and is also equipped with a means to fold-up the entire device for stowage/transport.
