This model was used and created by the Animal Research Institute, which operated at the Central Experimental Farm, in Ottawa. The Animal Research Institute probably used this model for extension work, meaning it was circulated to demonstrate to farmers how and what they could build to house poultry. The donor believes it could also have been a model for something the Experiemental Farm was considering built. That being said, it was never built. The donor was a research technician for the Centre for Food and Animal Research (CFAR) working on poultry genetics. He started in 1967. He found the model in Building 36, which had originally houses poultry work but had become a storage building, when the CFAR closed in April 1997. The donor noted that the two buildings beside 36, which were used as offices, had also originally been poulry related buildings. Furthermore, the donor believes his boss at the CFAR, Dr. Rob Gowe, may have been involved with this model. Cette maquette a été utilisé et créée par le " Animal Research Institute " qui opérait à la Ferme expérimentale centrale à Ottawa. Le " Animal Research Institute " a fort probablement utilisé ce modèle pour démontrer aux fermiers comment et quoi bâtir pour loger de la volaille. Le donateur croit que cette maquette aurait pu être un modèle pour un nouvel habitat à la Ferme expérimental centrale à Ottawa. Cela dit, un tel habitat n'a jamais été construit. Le donateur été un chercheur technique pour le "Centre for Food and Animal Research (CFAR) dans le champ de la génétique aviaire. Il a commencé dans ce poste en 1967. Il a retrouvé le modèle dans le bâtiment 36, qui avait originalement été utilisé en tant qu'habitat pour volaille mais est devenu un entrepôt général lorsque CFAR a fermé ses portes en avril 1997. Le donateur a noté que les deux bâtiments à coté de 36 qui étaient utilisés en tant que bureau, était originalement des bâtiments axés sur les volailles. De plus, le donateur croit que son ancien patron au CFAR Dr. Rob Gowe, a probablement été impliqué avec ce modèle.
Function
Used as a model to demonstrate and show to farmers how and what to build to house poultry. Utilisé en tant que maquette pour démontrer aux fermiers comment et quoi bâtir pour loger de la volaille.
Technical
This type of poultry building became obsolete in the early 1960s when poultry housing moved to what are essentially hanging cages, where cages are placed back to back and two rows high. In this new type of poultry houses, feces dropped below onto a conveyor belt or was manually removed. The older, open style of house represented by the model, which was used with other animals as well, saw the birds loose with roosts on the floor. Ce type d'habitat pour est devenu obsolète au début des années 1960s lorsque l'habitat de volaille a évolué à des cages suspendues lorsque les cages étaient placées dos à dos et deux rangées de haut. Avec ce nouveau type d'habitat, les matières fécales tombent dessous sur une courroie transporteuse où étaient éliminées de façon manuelle. Le style ancien et ouvert de l'habitat représenté par cette maquette pouvait accommoder autres animaux ainsi que des oiseaux.
