Pick Puck by Big Dutchman - Enrichment and natural wearing of the beak
Beskrivning
Pick Puck - Beak trimming made easy
The Pick Puck feeder is both an enrichment device and also provides benefits to the farmer. It is designed to occupy hens and allow them to act out their natural behaviour to search for feed.
A swinging plate with a coarse surface is suspended below a hopper which contains feed. When a hen picks onto the plate or nudges it from the side, the movement dispenses a small amount of feed that hens can peck. Not only does this device provide enrichment for the birds, but it creates a natural way for their beaks to be trimmed.
The Pick Puck can be installed in the litter aisles of aviaries, its height can be adjusted, and the amount of feed that is dispensed can be controlled and regulated at the hopper. Any type of conveying system can fill Pick Puck automatically.
