The holding pens are there, but really aren't as big as you would think due to crowding and leaving the live ones on the transportation device until needed. From memory at Wilsons the pens were about 20 feet wide and 60 feet long and would hold severals hours production of raw materials (lol). The really large part of the plant was the cooler areas where finished meats were stored. The actual kill floor and production areas were compact, say football field size on 2 floors.
