ABSTRACT:
Two elongated chicken houses are placed in parallel, side-by-side relationship with an egg room there between. A pair of U-shaped overhead conveyor rails extend through the eggroom and chicken houses, with each conveyor rail having one leg extending along the length of one end of a chicken house, its middle lateral leg extending through the eggroom, and its other end leg extending along the length of the one end of the other chicken house. An adjustable egg carrier is mounted on and is movable along each conveyor rail, and includes a vertically adjustable framework with an egg support platform swingably supported beneath the conveyor rail. A cable and winch are used to raise and lower the egg support platform, to lower the platform to a convenient working level while in the chicken houses and to raise the platform so that it clears the platforms at the sides of the chicken houses when being moved through the elevated side doors of the chicken houses to the eggroom.
