Slatted Floor

Placement and Safety: Select a Suitable Location: Place the slatted floor in the designated livestock area. Stable Base: Ensure that the supporting structure (beams or framework) is stable and level. Safety Measures: Consider safety precautions such as non-slip coatings or textured surfaces to prevent animals from slipping. Animal Introduction: Gradual Transition: Introduce animals to the slatted floor gradually. Allow them to explore and adapt. Comfort Zone: Provide additional bedding or soft areas nearby initially to ease the transition. Waste Management: Droppings Removal: The slatted design allows droppings to fall through. Regularly remove accumulated waste. Cleaning Schedule: Establish a cleaning routine to maintain hygiene. Health Monitoring: Foot Health: Monitor animals’ feet for any signs of abrasions or discomfort. Leg Health: Ensure that animals move comfortably and without strain. Maintenance: Inspect Regularly: Check for damaged slats, loose connections, or wear. Repair or Replace: Promptly repair or replace any damaged sections.
