Basic information

The high rise of chicken housing is the arrangement of cages for laying hens in such a way that manure is dropped through an open space between and beneath the cages, with room for storage and handling of manure underneath the house. The high rise house therefore requires infrequent manure handling with relatively simple equipment and ventilation demands are also somewhat simpler than in battery cage. That is for houses of the same size, fewer birds can be accommodated in a high rise house

In general, for cost minimization high rise housing should be as long as possible so that the feeders, waterers, bins fill systems, and central egg collection equipment are spread out over as many hens as possible. Long houses optimize equipment to bird ratios, where shorter houses tend to be economical

Each device has a different specification for each device. Equipment such as egg cages, because of the variety of sizes, there are many types of egg cage specifications. How can farmers choose the right size? This depends on the area of the farmer's own chicken house. The farmers can consult the technicians of the poultry equipment manufacturer. The technicians will recommend you, and the quality poultry farming equipment manufacturers can also customize the equipment

Product description 

Layer chicken cage is made up of 2 parts the starter section, which has the medication tanks, and supplies water to the rest of the layer cages, and follower sections. You can add as many follower sections to a starter section as you wish (the length of the house will limit more follower layer cages

A layer chicken cage has a nipple drinking systems included in the cages - these allow the chickens to get water by pecking at a nipple. A trough runs along the length of the layer cage which makes feeding the hens very easy

The floors of layer chicken cages are sloped so that eggs roll down toward the troughs on one end of the cage, where the eggs are then carried away via conveyor belt. A feeding trough is located on the other side of the cage, and food is generally always available to the chickens. They must push their heads and necks through the wire mesh

While designs may differ based on country or individual farm, generally layer chicken cage are made of wire on all sides, including the bottom, so that waste falls through to collection troughs below. Layer chicken cages are the basic equipment for laying hens, so it is very important to choose the proper size and material of the layer battery cage
