Increase production, reduce labor, have less damaged eggs
and a more sanitary egg collection process.
Rollaway nesting boxes are designed so the eggs roll forward
in to and under a protected compartment for latter collection.
These boxes take away the opportunity for the eggs to be
stepped on or eaten.
Having the eggs all lined up for collection allows for less
labor and search time in reaching into nest boxes.
The eggs also have less chance for the chickens to mess on
them making the process more sanitary.
There’s been a couple rollaway nest box designs on the
market, but most companies just provide a metal divided nest box without the
rollaway feature.
Some on the market use plastic parts that will eventually
will become brittle and break. They also
use thinner metals. Cottage Craft Works .com offers Amish made all
metal rollaway nest boxes that use thicker galvanized metals that are more of a
commercial grade. You can also find a large selection of poultry house products available at this unique online general store.
When the Amish build things they do so with longevity and
functionality in mind. They use thicker
metals no plastic or short lived parts. They are not as concerned with corporate share
holders or planned obsolesces.
The type of quality products made by the Amish compare to
the American made products that were made to last in the 50s and 60s before
plastic was even an available option.
Cottage Craft Works also offers two different proven
styles. The traditional divided nest box
in 2, 4 and 8 compartments as well as an open concept community nest box in 24”
and 48” patterned after the community nest used in large commercial egg processing
facilities.
It would be impossible to provide enough nesting boxes for
large row houses, thus community nesting boxes handle larger flocks.
The smaller commercial producers or even the back yard hobby
farmer can still obtain the same concept in a commercial quality nest box sized
for smaller flocks from Cottage Craft Works.
The open community boxes can also be purchased as a front
collection or rear collection system.
The rear collection system allows the nest box to be mounted
on an outside wall of fence for egg collection outside the coop.
Rear collection boxes are perfect for smaller coops and free
range chicken tractors where it is difficult on nearly impossible to obtain
inside access.
Nesting boxes are shipped flat unassembled for
shipping. They easy assemble using nuts
and bolts. No rivets are required.
