ABSTRACT:
Described is an enclosure device for encouraging the laying of eggs by domestic fowls particularly turkeys, comprising a cage open at opposite ends, one end constituting the fowl-entry end for permitting the entry and exit of the domestic fowl, and the opposite end constituting the egg-removal end for removing the egg layed by the fowl when in the cage. An ejector member is movable within the cage to force the fowl to exit from the fowl-entry end; and an egg-removing member is coupled to the ejector member within the cage to remove any eggs therein through the egg-removal end. The device further includes a drive for driving the ejector member and the egg-removal member first to force the fowl out of the cage from the fowl-entry end, and then to remove any egg therein from the egg-removal end.
