Abstract

Poultry is stunned by a subjection to a treatment gas having an anaesthetic and/or noxious effect. A chamber (40, 106, 140, 170, 200, 218) is utilised, to which the treatment gas is delivered, and the treatement environment is maintained. Crates (18, 48, 72, 114) are delivered by a conveyor mechanism (22, 50, 78, 108) to the vicinity of an inlet (8, 42, 80, 102a, 102b, 102c), and mechanism is utilised which conveys the containers through the inlet and into the chamber and preferably through the chamber to an outlet (10, 144, 184, 102a, 102b, 102c), from which the crates are conveyed by further mechanism. The speed at which the containers are conveyed through the treatment gas in the chamber is such that humane stunning or killing of the poultry is effected during passage thereof from the inlet to the outlet.
