Litter conditions are very important to the performance and health of today’s market poultry, making proper litter management a top priority for producers. Priefert’s Litter Saver provides poultry producers an efficient and economical way to manage their litter. Not only will the Litter Saver allow you to create great litter conditions for your birds, but it will also save you money in clean out expenses and shavings costs. With this machine, you will have less money in your equipment, less time in house preparation, less maintenance, and you can clean houses in any weather condition. Priefert Litter Savers are “Time Tested – Grower Approved.”
Available in 5’ and 7’ widths, our Litter Saver features free-swinging helical shaped hammers (not blades or tines) that pulverize cake and lift and aerate litter from the floor at over 700 RPM. This design allows you to clean up hard pan problems by having dry litter all the way to the house pad, and drier litter increases the “livability” percentage in houses. The skids of the Litter Saver are designed to penetrate litter and ride on top of the pad, for efficient cleaning every time that results in a smooth, soft, well-aerated surface. When attached to your tractor, the Litter Saver is offset to the right side, allowing you to reach all the way to the wall.
Time and time again, Priefert’s Litter Saver has been called “the most affordable machine on the market for litter management and control.” This machine allows you to save time and money while being environmentally friendly by giving you the ability to reuse litter. This reduces the costs and labor involved in frequent clean outs or de-caking. This also allows producers to clean out houses during optimum plant growing season, when fertilizer values are at a premium.
Litter Savers are designed to be low maintenance and easy to clean. There are only 4 grease zerks and the gearbox to service with no chains or sprockets. We also include a respirator and safety glasses with each Litter Saver. We recommend that producers make 3 passes per house, 8 hours apart depending on the temperature, humidity, and wetness of the cake for optimum results.

Litter Savers help clean up hard pan problems by helping you have dry litter all the way to the house pad. Drier litter increases the “livability” percentage.
This product allows producers to prepare house bedding at any time, in any weather.
Free-swinging, offset helical-shaped hammers pulverize hard cake while lifting and aerating all of the bedding from the pad up at 700 RPM.
As the Litter Saver pulverizes the cake, it allows moisture and ammonia to escape, leaving loose, dry bedding.
The skids are designed to penetrate litter and ride on top of the pad.
The Litter Saver levels with every pass without digging into the hardpan.
By allowing for fewer clean outs, producers can remove bedding at the most opportune time, significantly improving the weight and value of the litter cleanout.
We recommend that producers make 3 passes per house, 8 hours apart depending on the temperature, humidity, and wetness of the cake for optimum results.
When attached to your tractor, the Litter Saver is offset to the right side, allowing you to reach all the way to the wall.
The Litter Saver is designed for 3-Point hookup to Category I tractors, but can fit a Category II with tractor adjustment.
Litter Savers are designed to be low maintenance and easy to clean with only 4 grease zerks and the gearbox to service with no chains or sprockets.
