Modular Manure Belt Pullet Cages
Chore-Time’s Modular Manure Belt Cage System offers egg producers the outstanding pullet performance they expect from Chore-Time, plus greater shipping simplicity, and easier assembly and repair – all in an economical cage system that meets current bird space standards.
Sturdy Construction
Chore-Time cages are quality built in North America. Solid construction and heavy-duty materials combine with our innovative design for years of superior performance.
Cage Floors
Galfan® floors provide years of trouble-free use. Individual floors allow for easy manure belt access.*
Other Cage Features
- Cages are available in 3-high to 8-high models in cage rows up to 520 feet (160 meters) long; walkways and/or step rails are easily integrated.
- Modular design features individual cages instead of eight-foot (2.4-meter) cage sections – makes cage replacement and manure belt access easier.
- Easy assembly features innovative interlocking parts, and requires fewer rings
- Brood-Grow cages feature a large push-in door for wide access to the cage interior. The door closes with a simple, yet secure spring mechanism.
- For even greater durability, cages and structural components are manufactured using all galvanized steel construction and Galfan® cage floors.
- Mesh partitions improve ventilation.
- The feed shield can be remotely adjusted (optional feature) for easy adjustment and continued feed conservation while birds grow.
- Floor support is simple solid rod construction. Does not require constant end-row tension.

Chore-Time’s Manure Belt System is self-cleaning and offers exceptionally good tracking for years of smooth operation and extremely manageable manure. An optional air drying system is also available.
