Each of the elements 3o rests upon one of the side members i3.
Seated on the end piece 1l at the opposite end or the section from the mesh wall 20 is a removable water trough 4.0 which is provided at its ends with brackets il for engagement by pivoted buttons 42 to maintain the trough in position against the upright posts l adjacent thereto. The mesh Wall 19 depending from the upper end members e includes a portion 43 which merges in spaced relation to the troughv in a downwardly and outwardly inclined portion i4 terminating in a vertical portion 45 projecting into the trough. Disposed within the trough 40 and extending lengthwise thereof is an angular mesh partition i6 which extends across the vertical plane of the portion l5 at an inclination and adjacent the latter. The mesh wall portion 45 and partition 46 coact to divide the trough 40 into an inner and outer compartment. The trough d0 projects a material distance from the end of the section in order that water may be admitted thereto without removing the trough, and the chicks within the section may have access to the water within through the space between the upper edge of the later and the downwardly and outwardly inclined mesh wall portion 44.
ln general it may be stated that the broeder section constitutes a brooder chamber d? at one end of the section, and a feeding chamber d8 at the opposite end of the section, the chambers 47 and i8 being in communication throughout substantially the entire area of the section in order that the chicks may pass freely from one cl'iain.-= ber to the other.
It is thought that the many advantages of a brooder in accordance with this invention will be readily apparent, and although the preferred em= bodiment of the invention is as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that changes in the size, shape and arrangement of parts may be made, so long as such changes tall within the scope of the invention as donned in the appended claims.
What l claim iszl. In a broeder, a structure forming a cham-1 ber having the walls thereof including a frame and. a reticulated panel at the inner side oi the i'rame, and a trough seated upon the bottom oi the frame of one wa the panel carried by the said wall frame upon which the trough is seated having its lower portion extended outwardly loeyond the outer side of said frame and depending into said trough in spaced relation to the front oi the later.
2. lin a brooder, a structure forming a chamber having one of the walls thereof including a frame and a reticulated panel at the inner side thereof, trough forming means extended outwardly from the lower portion oi such frame, and said panel having its lower portion extended outwardly beyond the outer side of said frame and depending into said means to the bottom of the latter to divide it into an outer and an inner compartment, the lower portion of said panel being formed or a pair of parts at an angle to each other and to the trough and frame.
3. ln a brooder, a structure :forming a chamber having one of the walls thereof including a reticulated panel having an upper and a lower part, said upper part arranged at the upper portion of the inner face or said wall and its lower part extending beyond said wall and forwardly of said face, trough forming means el tended outwardly from the lower portion of such wall, and said panel of said wall having its lower por= tion extended outwardly and depending into said means to the bottom oi the latter to divide it into an outer and an inner compartment, the inner of said compartments opening into said chamber.
ll. In a broeder, a structure forming a cham ber, one oi the walls of said chamber being formed with an upstanding reticulated panel and an outwardly directed trough forming means at its lower end, said panel having an intermediate part extended outwardly with respect to said structure and a lower part extended downwardly into said means, that part of the panel extended into said means being spaced completely from the front of the latter.
5. In a broeder, a structure lforming a cham= ber, one 'of the walls of said chamber being provided with a reticulated panel of angle shape in vertical section and a trough forming means, said panel including a vertically disposed upper portion and a lower portion extended outwardly :from and disposed at an angle with respect to said upper portion, the trough forming means having its rear portion positioned within and seated upon the lower portion of said wall, said trough forming means being extended outwardly from the lower portion of said wall, the said lower portion of 'said panel depending into said trough forming means adjacent the iront or the latter, the said vertical portion of the panel being arranged at the inner side of said wall, and the said lower portion of said panel being exe tended through the said wall.
6. In. a broeder, a structure forming a cham= ber having a removable wall, and means for re= lease-bly attaching said wall in position, said wall being formed with a reticulated panel having a vertically disposed upper portion and an out-i wardly directed downwardly disposed lower por= tion, said wall being provided at its lower portion with an outwardly directed trough forming means, and the lower portion of said panel demv pending into said trough forming means adja-= cent the front of the latter.
7. In a brooder, the combination with a structure providing a chamber, said structure having an open. side, of a combined wall and trough ldd notices? fo wh w: element mounted in seid open side, eeid element incig e reticuiated ei constitut= ing o well and outwer directed open-top conm toinerffo fof.. me at its bottom to constitute e trough; seid element being oi the con=I tour as seid open side, said eleent seeting upon the bottoni end ing in close proity the sides ond top wells of yseid ope t: seid panel fm. e, vertic if upper portion and y'tov element inclu e, retioulated panel constituting e well and outwerdiy directed open top conteinei .mi l x1 f means et its bottom to constitute e trough, seid element being of the some contour es said open side, said element seating upon the bottom and opposing in close proximity the sides end top weils o1' said opening, said panel includ ing e vertically disposed upper portion and an outwardly directed. lower portion extended beyond said structure and depending into said means adjacent the front, said means extended outwardly beyond said structure, and spaced means carried by said structure for overlapping the outer fece of said element for securing the latter in position.
