The VDL Agrotech Valènta broiler feeding pan is suited for all types of dry feed: pellets, crumbled and meal. The pan has a low ridge allowing day old chicks easy and direct access to feed. The absence of a spiked grill prevents the chicks from getting caught inside the feeding pan, and promotes easy access to the feed at all ages. The design of the feeding pan reduces the waste or loss of feed to a minimum throughout the growing cycle. A fluid feed flow in the pan at each of the 6 feed level settings is managed with the level adjuster. By winching up the system, the feed level from high to low is automatically adjusted. The pan can be easily opened and is hinged to the grill for easy cleaning. The rotating pan can be cleaned while it's closed and has water outlet openings in the bottom. The Valènta pan has various options to suit each individual need. Those options include an anti-swing insert to fix the pan to the feeding tube, a cut off slide to close feed supply to individual feed pans and a reducer tube for restricted feeding. For alternative systems the pan is also available with a flat tube connection, where no anti perch wire is required.
