Whoever told you that slaked lime is made for animal pens is messing with you and its alot of nonsense
Soda lime is a mixture containing principally of calcium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide. Soda lime absorbs carbon dioxide.
Limestone, calcium carbonate, is heated until it glows. It will give off carbon dioxide and change into calcium oxide. Calcium oxide is called quicklime because it hisses and swells up when a drop of water is added to it, just as if it was alive. "Quick" used to be used to indicate that something was living, so in this case it would be alive-lime, or quicklime.

slaked lime is made by adding water to quicklime.
adding water to quick lime produces slaked lime.

its kind of hard to explain. orignaly it dosent react with water (execpt from erosion) until it is made into calcium oxide using a blast furnace the new quick lime then is recated with water to form slaked lime which can be made into lime water by adding even more water. then there is another proces where slaked lime can be turned into limestone again and the whole cycle again. 1) calcium carobante + heat = quick lime + carbon doixide or CaCO3 + heat = CaO + C(O)2 2) quick lime + water = slaked lime CaO + (H)2O = Ca(OH)2
Calcium hydroxide, commonly known as limewater, it is made by adding CaO to H2O
because they could not separate it which required electricity which wasn't in tuse as they didn't know how to harness it.

Lime (quicklime) is made from limestone- but it is not the same thing. Agricultural lime is powdered limestone. Quicklime is limestone (calcium carbonate) that has been roasted and changed to Calcium Oxide. Slaked quicklime is quicklime that has had water added- Calcium hydroxide. Quicklime is used for odor control.
