battery housing the housing of animals or birds in confined spaces, either singly or in twos or threes, with the compartments packed very closely together and often stacked a number of layers deep. Has economic advantages in the provision of automatic feeding, watering, egg-collecting and dung-removal services. The same system has been used for dairy cattle with the cows in mobile cubicles which travel past a milking point at the appointed times. The system is a point of contention between farmers and animal liberationists. Want to thank TFD for its existence?
