Apparently it's some type of vacuum used for moving chickens into cages, I think they claim it's more humane (less chance of injury). There's a video but I'm at work and can't see it.

oh my god, that is insane. the "rubber fingers" on the rotating drums sweep the chickens up into it and then it pops them out. the chickens look all freaked out and it definitely looks like they could be injured by it.

Good Lord!

Well, that's pretty horrifying. Gotta love their slogan, "Life Just Got Easier!" and their product line. Just what traveling chickens and turkeys need to make their lives easier: to be caged, vacuumed and hydraulically dumped.

Remember the machines harvesting "energy cells" in The Matrix?

That is disgusting.

Holy crap. Poor birds.

It reminded me of picking up golf balls on a driving range. :(
