Abstract: A box for domestic animals, preferably sows, e.g. for individual feeding of the animals. The box (1) accommodates one animal and comprises a feed trough  at the front end of the box, a front gate (5) hinged about a vertical axis a nd a rear gate (3) hinged about a horizontal axis (14) in order to be pivoted t o open position at a level above the back of the animal. The front gate (5) ma y block the access to the feed trough when the rear gate (3) is open, while th e rear gate (3) in the closed position prevents access to the inner of the box  (1) while the front gate (5) is open. A connecting means (12) interconnects front and rear gates (5; 3) so that opening one of the gates causes closing of the other. The suspension of the rear gate (3) with horizontal axis of pivot  enables lifting the gate (3) up above the reach of the animals, thus preventing an animal outside the box (1) from accidentally closing the rear gate when in open position.
