ABSTRACT:
An elongated floor structure is provided having upstanding opposite end and rear walls supported therefrom. A pair of elongated ground skids are mounted beneath and extend along front and rear marginal portions of the floor structure and a roof structure extends between and interconnects the upper marginal portions of the rear and opposite end walls. A plurality of upstanding posts are spaced along the forward marginal portion of the floor structure between the end walls and support corresponding front marginal portions of the roof structure from the front marginal portion of the floor structure. A front-to-rear extending upstanding main partition extends between each of the posts and a corresponding portion of the rear wall and a horizontally swingable gate removably closes the forward end of each area disposed between adjacent main partition and each end wall and the adjacent partition. Further, two front-to-rear extending supplemental partitions divide each aforementioned area into three animal receiving stalls. The floor structure defines front-to-rear extending slots therein slightly more than one inch in width so as to allow substantial amounts of manure to fall through the slots and at least one set of corresponding ends of the ground skids include structure for anchoring one or more tow members thereto preparatory to skidding the enclosure a distance at least equal to the length of the enclosure. Each of the gates supports feed and water containers therefrom.
