Abstract

A plurality of rectangular, hexagonal concrete slabs are employed and adjacentlydisposed to form a flooring for a hog pen having elevated sides or margins. Each slat has a plurality of apertures so that the porosity of the slat, in closer proximity to the walls of the pen, is greater than through the central region of the pen. This provides, because of the observed behavior of the hog, a greater porous region adjacent the walls of the pen where the animal tends to defecate, the defecation running through the slots into a collection region below the elevation of the slats. The central region which has a less porosity, is more suitable for the animal to walk or lay upon. When the animal walks near the sides of the pen, the hoof action of the hog on the slat tends to push any feces collected on the top of the slat through the apertures into a collection region below the elevation of the slats and hence, the pen is maintained clear of defecation by the actual movement of the hogs. Pen cleaning by the farmer is reduced or avoided.
