Basic information

Chicken layer cages have a width of 49.2″ and the length is 95″. Also, another fact is the length of the compartment can be enlarged in stages. So that the flock size can be determined by the customers individually. Both male and female birds can exhibit the natural behaviour because of the reinforced perch in the centre of the cage. A closed partition separates the individual cages & ensure calmness within the birds. Which also keeps the males separated in different groups. Zinc-aluminium coating is generally used for the cage front and for the bottom wire of the cage. These cages are available with or without air duct. This allows higher housing space, has minimum labour requirements. And also ensures healthy eggs with perfect hatching

This caging system has by default a good feeding system in it. The feed chain carries the food to the birds evenly and without separating it. Low maintenance required for feeding. Feed losses are avoided by the deep trough

The flat-surfaced foot rail, made of stainless steel, slide the eggs to the trough area. This means short roll-off distances and which increases egg quality. The foot rail also prevents possibility of falling into the cage below and the birds cannot peck any eggs

There is an egg saver, which ensures the safe rolling-off of eggs to the longitudinal belt. An additional advantage is for the newly laid eggs is, they dry while sliding to the egg saver, for which feather or dust cannot stick to the eggs

the manure collected by the manure belt beneath the bottom wires. Which can remain up to 6 days. The air duct gives a direct air flow just upon the manure belt which helps to reduce the extraction of ammonia as well as dries the manure

Watering system in chicken layer cages is highly effective, water nipple are located outside each cages. These are made of stainless steel. The splash water is collected by drip cup, which keeps the cage safe from corrosion & keep the manure dry

Layer chicken cage are the basic equipment for laying hens, so it is very important to choose the proper size and material of the layer battery cage

How to choose layer cage

2. When purchasing the layer chicken cage, the farmer should pay attention to the design of the angle of the egg at the bottom of the cage. The angle of the egg should be accurate. If the angle is not suitable, the egg will not come out. Or the angle is too big and the eggs are struck by each other. The general suitable angle is around 7-8 degrees. The farmers should pay special attention when purchasing

3. When purchasing the layer cage, pay attention to the connection between the egg cage and the bottom cage of the layer cage. The point of the connection should be fine, and there should not be too much clearance. If the gap is too large, it may cause the egg to fall, which will affect the efficiency of the chicken farm

4. The most important point is the choice of layer chicken cage material. When observing, the farmer should pay attention to check whether the wire of the egg cage is tough. The egg cage with better toughness will not scratch or damage the laying hen

Frequently ask questions

Q: What is difference between battery cage and free range

A: Chicken in battery cage are unable to roam and explore as they are confined to a relatively small space, thereby having lower carbon footprint than free range egg

Q: Why do battery chicken produce more eggs than free range

A: The birds ate food fortified with vitamins to replace those obtained by foraging and sunlight

Q: How do farmers use battery cages

A: Battery cages are primarily designed to achieve high density
