Basic information

Our company’s finished layer modern project was established in the Middle Eastern poultry farm to make people understand how the layer cage system works. It is made with small metal wire mesh which is fully hot-dip galvanized. This layer cage system for poultry is the most commonly arranged in three rows of identical small metal wire cages connected together like cells, hence the name. Further, these rows are stacked on top of one another. This formation is called tier cage. In this housing system, hens have access to automatic management-controlled feed and water

It makes use of large fans and vertical ventilation technology, welfare and healthy farming technology from strong materials such as metal, solid wood, heavy-duty plastics and many more, according to the current nutritional needs and living needs in different countries, the market has continuously put forward new requirements for the development of the corresponding livestock and poultry breeding technology and its supporting building facilities

The layer cage system is made of anti-rust materials with a guarantee of 25 years

Further, the wire cage floor of the layer cage system is sloped so that eggs roll down to the egg tray for easy automated collection. Similarly, hens’ droppings fall through the wire cage floor either onto a conveyor belt or into a pit for disposal. While the space provided for each hen varies across each farm, to put things into perspective, the space available to each hen in a layer cage system is often described as less than the size of a sheet of A4 paper

Advantages

1. It has a feeder that minimize feed spillage

Layer cage system makes it easy for poultry farmers to care adequately for their chickens, despite this dire need to take care of the chickens, battery cages help the poultry farmer to minimize feed spillage when feeding chickens. It is easy to minimize feed spillage with battery cages because they are designed with standard accessories for holding food and water, especially the amount required for feeding the chickens daily. This disallows any form of feed spillage and wastage. Instead of feed spillage, the chickens keep feeding on the required amount of food specifically provided in front of them

2. It saves space

Farmers having a challenge of inadequate space should consider using poultry cages. A layer cage system allows higher stocking densities even where there is low floor space. You could double or triple your capacity of your pen with the help of cages. Furthermore, if you are interested in increasing or extending your flock size without constructing new pen houses, then getting cages is the best solution

3. High-quality poultry products

Rearing conditions always have an effect on chickens and their end-product quality. These conditions include air flow, sunshine and temperature. With cages, these conditions can be rightly conditioned to facilitate rapid growth of your birds and less exposure to diseases pathogens. Layer cage system makes automated feeding and drinking system possible. Birds can be provided with clean, fresh water through nipple drinkers, thus preventing contamination and wastage of water. Clean eggs can be collected at any time with less incidence of egg cracks or egg eating. A farmer that incorporates poultry cages into his farm under proper management should be getting more profits

4. Fewer incidences of diseases or infections

It is impossible for chickens to move around when kept in cages and this reduces the possibility of becoming infected with diseases due to interaction with sick birds. Furthermore, the rate of disease transmission is reduced, giving a farmer the sufficient time to handle any outbreak. Additionally, the birds don’t have access to their faeces, thus reducing contamination and transmission of diseases within the flock and poultry house
