ABSTRACT:
Feeding trough for a group of animals intended for slaughter and having a size variation within a predetermined range comprises separate food and water compartments positioned at horizontally spaced apart locations within the feeding trough, A front wall is provided over which the animal's head can reach into the compartments. The trough has an access opening above the front wall through which the head of the animal reaches. A hopper is provided for supplying feed to the food compartment to a predetermined depth. The access opening is dimensioned so that only one animal can reach into the compartments at a time, The food and water compartments are positioned within the feeding trough and have shapes configured so that the animal when positioned with its head in the feeding trough can move between the food and water compartments by turning its head laterally without needing to back out of the feeding trough.
