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.

An aerobic treatment system includes a plurality of highly porous, high surface area, inert, synthetic, inorganic, or natural material particles, having a specific gravity of less than 1.0 that float on an enclosed aqueous environment whereby plants and/or microbes can be grown thereon and/or animals such as fish can be raised therein. The inert particles trap air bubbles and nutrients for the growth of diverse types of plants, animals, or microbial systems, which enable phyto treatment of an aqueous waterbody with the ability to limit the growth of unwanted plant and algae such as blue-green algae. The above aerobic bio treatment system contains desirably bioremediation media having one or more microorganisms that are able to withstand system shocks while minimizing energy usage associated with aeration. The system can generally be utilized in any aqueous environment such as waste water and/or polluted water in an enclosed area such as a container, tank, pond, lake, or the like.

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.

A poultry barn robot for robotically preforming various poultry barn operation tasks that includes a chassis, a collection platform pivotally mounted to the chassis, and an conveyor connected to the chassis, wherein the conveyor includes conveyor system for conveying at least one of dead birds and manure cakes from a bedded floor of a poultry barn to the collection platform. The robot additionally includes at least one equipment cabinet mounted to the chassis, and at least one controller that is structured and operable to control: movement of the robot through the poultry barn; movement of the conveyor system; and movement of the collection platform between a Collection position and a Disposal position.

A guide frame extends along an aligned row of multilevel cages and mounting scrapers fit within a floor space between cage supports in a debris removal system in a poultry barn to be guided during advancing and retracting of the guide frames by pulling cables attached to each ends of the guide frames. Spaced pivoted scrapers are mounted extending between the sides of the guide frame which scrapers are positioned vertically when the guide frame is advanced to push debris forwardly along the floor areas between the cage supports but swing up when the guide frame is pulled back to move over collected debris. The debris is moved step by step along the guide frame by reciprocation of the scrapers mounted on the guide frame past the end of the row of cages and into a debris receiving discharge. The system may also include a guide frame with pivoted scraper blades fit to the width of a walkway between rows of cages which is also pulled in an advancing and retracting direction along the walkway floor synchronously with the cage guide frame but in a reverse direction to push debris forwardly step by step along the surface of both the floor under the row of cages and the walkway.

Provided is a multi-layer, intelligent and environment-friendly breeding structure for meat waterfowl, including house bodies, a manure treatment room, staircases and feeders. A bottom end net bed and an upper layer net bed are fixedly connected in the house body, and the upper layer net bed is located above the bottom end net bed. Manure dropping mechanisms are arranged side by side between the bottom end net bed and the upper layer net bed. Conveying mechanisms are arranged respectively on both sides of each of the manure dropping mechanisms. A plurality of conveyor belt conveyors are arranged side by side below the bottom end net bed. A transfer mechanism is arranged at one side of the each of the house bodies, and the transfer mechanism is used for collecting manure on the conveyor belt conveyors and the conveying mechanisms and transporting the manure to the fermentation mechanism.
