Description
This facility allows for a more fundamental approach to research work. Individual measurements on zootechnical performances but also on feed intake are possible through the use of weighing feeding troughs and connected drinking troughs. The INDI’BAT also allows testing different ambient conditions and analysing effluents produced. It is divided into 4 bioclimatic rooms with 24 spots, a room with an outdoor courtyard with 24 spots, and a metabolic room. Animals are housed on open-work wood flooring.
