Poultry farming is a popular method of food production that depends on the suffering of millions of animals every year. In order to maximize profit, the poultry farming industry has caused birds to grow at alarming rates that impact their welfare in the process, it has starved birds in order to combat the unnatural growth for which they were bred, and it has force fed birds in order to engorge their liver so that fine diners can enjoy a particularly cruel delicacy

Cage advantage 

1. Layer cage is rearing egg laying chicken, after pullet growing up to 12 weeks or 16 weeks, transport them to layer cage

2. Its biggest advantage is increasing egg production to 98%, very easy to handle chicken waste and reduce disease transmission

3. Full accessories: Nipple drinking system Medication tanks, Water pipe, Feeder through

4. Iso certification

5. Hot dip galvanized, lifespan is 25-30 years, 10 years no rust
6. 3 tiers cage capacity is 120 birds, 4 tiers cage capacity is 160 birds, 5 tiers cage capacity is 200 birds 

Layer farm sequence

A standard procedure is followed for the layer farm sequence. This procedure starts when female chicks are raised into pullets for commercial egg production. This stage is called rearing, and there are several common rearing systems. Some farms raise layer chicks on a litter floor in a shed similar to a meat chicken shed. Other pullets are either finished off or reared entirely in wire-floored cages 

1. Brooding for layer poultry farming (day old to 6 weeks)

When a hen sits still for a prolonged period without eating or drinking normally, she is said to be broody. This is a normal process during which the hen stops producing eggs in order to incubate a nest full of eggs. When the eggs hatch the hen then cares for the chicks by keeping them warm and finding feed and water for them. Modern strains of chicken have been selected not to go broody so that more eggs are laid over a period of time

2. Growing layer birds (6 to 20 weeks)

Once chicks can control their body temperature they still need to be protected from climate extremes. At this stage they receive pullet grower feed which is less expensive and contains only 15% to 17% protein and 7% less energy than the starter feed

3. Moving the layer birds

Pullets are usually moved into their laying quarters, at 16-18 weeks of age, before they reach sexual maturity. This ensures that they are settled in before egg production begins. Handling birds at any time must be done with care to avoid injury. As pullets mature into laying hens they are fed a layer ration designed to enable them to perform best.

4. Adult layer birds (20 up to 78 weeks)

Adult hens are the real workers of the industry. For best performance they need to be fed carefully and kept in a house at 21-28oC. This means that hen houses are designed to keep as near as possible to this temperature year round. The hens are checked regularly to monitor their health and medicines may be administered as needed. Tinted egg strains usually require less feed (105g feed/hen/day) than brown egg strains (120g feed/hen/day)

Automatic feeding system (fited for the farm sized above 10000+ birds)

1. Both of the traveling hopper(feeding carts) type and chain feeding system are available

2. The feeding cart connected with the silo by the transverse feeding auger is more popular here

3. The augers and chain materials made in South Africa, also the best quality worldwide

Automatic drinking system 

1. lt is made up by the square pipes(thickness 2.5mm) or round pipes(thickness 2.0mm) with 360 degree flowing ripple drinkers, water drip cups and water pressure regulators, terminals, splits, water filters makes sure the waters clean and no harmful to the layers

2. The medicater (from France) to farmers, the best quality founded worldwide because we are one of the authorized distributors of DOSATRON in China.It ensures the layer birds health during all period

Automatic manure removal system 

Humid manure removal efficiency is high to 65%, timely cleaning manure, the excessive evaporation of ammonia is prevented, promoting the improvement of a healthy micro climate in a poultry house 

Automatic eggs collection system 

1. It is made up by egg collection machines, egg collection belts (made in ltaly) and egg belt hook. The machines an be from 2 tier to 8 tier. A frame cages also can be equipped with egg conveyor system which can deliver all eggs from differenthouses to egg storage room

2. Egg production of caged layer was reported to be more than those kept in deep litter system
