Cumberland offers Mechanical Nesting Systems to reduce stress on birds while decreasing the number of floor and slat eggs. Mechanical nests can contribute significantly to enhancing hatchability and profitability by providing hens with a comfortable, safe and easily accessible laying area and growers with efficient and dependable automated egg collection.

Durable Nest Pads
Cumberland's rubber finger or gray crushed leaf nest pads are easy to clean and provide a comfortable and inviting laying area. Both designs promote proper roll-out with minimal egg contact. Pads are available for 10 and 12 hole nests.

Nest Bottoms
Our plastic, corrosion resistant nest bottom has large openings from the front of the nest to the back keeping litter from building up without losing any strength. It's contoured design helps funnel eggs to the belt with ease.

Nest Bottom Rods
The nest bottom rods support the nest bottom without the need for ledges that can cause litter build up. Adjustable nest bottom rods will help facilitate safe egg roll out. Cumberland's exclusive metal finger tabs hold the nest pads securely in place.

Wooden Perch
For Center Roll-Out nests, Cumberland offers an optional wooden perch, with double-reveted support brackets to eliminate sway. The perch can be raised and locked to control accessibility.

Larger Vertical Opening
Cumberland's AN12 hole and AN10 hole mechanical nest offers a new larger vertical hole opening that helps provide proper and easy access for the bird. The front cover panel design extends to the bottom of the nest to keep any unwanted debris from under the nest.

Anti-Roost Device
A simple but effective anti-roost device, and a steep pitched roof, keep brids from roosting on the houses.

Aisle Trays and Covers
Heavy duty galvanized aisle trays, and grey vinyl aisle covers, protect the egg belt and the eggs as they pass between the units. The covers significantly reduce maintenance costs by eliminating the expense of continuously replacing corroded metal aisle covers. Vinyl covers are available for recessed or non-recessed nest installations.

Return Idler
Belt rollers are made of heavy-duty plastic and adjustable with a simple screw pin to provide optimal belt alignment. A durable fiber brush sweeps the reutrn belt for cleaner pathways.

FRN Flipper
A unique design for Front Roll Out Nests, the FRN Flipper comes standard and keeps the birds from roosting on top of the nest.

Return Idler
Like the idler on our standard mechanical nest, the return idler on the Front Roll Out Nest is easily accessible under a hinged cover. Heavy duty rollers are adjustable with a simple screw pin and a durable fiber brush keeps pathways clear of unwanted materials.

Your Choice of Pads
The Front Roll Out Nest also offers the gray crushed leaf or rubber finger nest pads with a durable, easy to clean, plastic carriage.
