With the increasing number of large-scale chicken farms, it is more contradictory for chicken farms to choose automated poultry cages for equipment, and they do not know how to choose. The following poultry equipment manufacturers will introduce to you how to make decisions on the selection of equipment for your reference

A Type Layer Cages

The laying hen equipment is a type A chicken coop. You can choose to install two types of manure cleaning: scraper cleaning and belt cleaning. It is a relatively early use of laying hen breeding equipment. If your coop can hold 5000-30000 birds. A-type battery layer cages are very suitable.

Advantage:

1. The cost is low, and the breeding density is higher than that of flat breeding.
2. The open area of each layer of chicken coop is large, even if it is an open chicken house, the ventilation effect is good.
3. Reasonable design, easy to operate,
4. Easy maintenance and long service life.
5. The easy-to-open spring-loaded door makes it easy to observe and move the pullets.

Shortcoming:

1. The area is relatively large, and the space utilization rate is low compared with the H-type chicken cages;
2. The labor intensity of workers is high;
3. The chicken manure on the upper tierof the chicken cage will fall to the chickens on the lower tier, which is not conducive to the health of the chickens and the integrity of the feathers.

H Type Poultry Cages

Chicken cages are tiered on top of each other like buildings. This kind of equipment was developed later, due to the increasing shortage of land resources, less and less land can be used for breeding. Therefore, more and more customers increase the stocking density, just to save land, and the degree of intensification is getting higher and higher.

Advantage: 

1. Vertically battery chicken cages save more floor space, increase the number of feeding, reduce labor and management costs, and ultimately bring considerable profits to chicken farmers.
2. There is a manure removal belt at the bottom of each cage, which is clean and hygienic, allowing the chickens to grow healthily and less pollution to the environment.
3. Small footprint, high space utilization, easy to achieve intensive and large-scale breeding;
4. Sliding cage door, the opening is convenient and large, and it is easier to catch chickens.

Shortcoming:

1. It adopts closed type and automatic temperature control, otherwise it is difficult to control the temperature inside the chicken house.
2. There are at least tens of thousands of chickens in a chicken house, and the risk factor is relatively high.

Based on the above situation, I believe everyone knows how to choose. The chicken farmer still choose the equipment that suits them according to their total amount of laying hens and investment.

There are more and more farmers raising hens, and they are all using battery cage for chickens and breeding equipment to raise chickens. How should the hens prevent the stress reaction in the chicken cage and Poultry Rearing Equipment? Here are some suggestions.

1. Farmers should start from the growth characteristics of laying hens to provide a good, quiet and comfortable growing environment for the laying hens. The control of temperature and humidity, as well as the management of ventilation should be scientific and reasonable, avoiding the sheds caused by poor ventilation. Moisture and air pollution, etc., to avoid the stress of environmental failure.

2. Farmers must ensure that the stability of feeding during the whole breeding process, such as laying water, feeding, disinfection and other environments, must be in order, time is regular, farmers should pay attention to not being able to break water, lack of materials .

3. During the breeding process, the farmers should control the environment of the chicken house, such as fixing the time of the switch lights, cooling the work in the summer, keeping warm in the winter, and preventing the adverse effects of high and low temperature on the laying hens. In the autumn when the temperature changes greatly, timely prevention and control measures should be taken. In the rainy season, work to prevent storms is also needed.

4. In the farm where the laying hens are raised, the farmers should be careful not to yell and scream, and pay attention to the chicken houses not to be built in noisy places.

5. The feed ingredients required for different growth stages of laying hens are different. Therefore, the farmers must change the feed at a fixed stage, and there must be a transitional stage in the process of replacing the feed, so as to ensure the smooth adaptation of the chicken.

Now caged laying hens have become the first choice for farmers. But for many novice farmers who raise chickens peacefully, they have this question. Is it that the cost of raising chickens with automated chicken farming equipment is high?

The answer is that the cost of breeding will be high. The following will introduce why high-cost farmers are still willing to use it.

First of all, the chicken cage equipment adopts a multi-layer cage method. The chicken coop has three, four or more layers. Therefore, farmers using chicken cages can raise three, four times or even more laying hens. Cage raising increases the utilization of chicken house area. As the number of chicken houses increases, so does the income of farmers.

Multi-layer chicken cages raise chickens. The area above the chicken coop is also effectively used. And the feces produced by the chickens in the cage can fall on the ground or on the conveyor belt. The flocks will not come into contact with feces. This reduces the number of fecal infections. This allows the chickens to lay eggs earlier.

Laying hens are raised in chicken cages. Laying broilers live in chicken coops for a long time. The stocking density is relatively large, so there is very little space for chicken activities. If the activity of broilers is less, the energy consumption will be reduced, and the feed required will be reduced. Cage can effectively save more than 20% of feed cost.

Farmers use chicken farming equipment to raise chickens. It is very convenient to drink and feed. Farmers can save a lot of space to manage the flock and deal with other things. Improve the labor efficiency of farmers.

The quality of the chicken coop is good. Chicken farming equipment can be used for more than ten years. Farmers choose the hot-dip galvanizing process when buying. Buy duplex, anti-aging. Numerous batches of chickens can be raised.

It is believed that even poultry farms with good egg production conditions will have poultry pecking eggs. This can happen if the laying hens develop a bad habit of eating their own eggs.

Laying hens pecking eggs may be accidental. But once it becomes a habit and other hens learn, the amount of eggs collected will drop a lot. How can we prevent this? Or if eating eggs has become a problem, how can we solve it?

Poultry battery layer cages can prevent laying hens from pecking eggs. Why do you say this way?

1. The poultry feeding system in the layer battery cage system ensures that your chickens get an adequate and balanced diet. The device distributes the feed evenly in the trough, and the amount of feed can be adjusted. In order to avoid waste of feed, there are feeding devices at both ends of the trough, which can feed back the feed. Feed trough. We recommend that you add protein and calcium materials to its feed so that every chicken will be full.
2. The internal space of the battery chicken cages is sufficient. The poultry layer should not directly touch their eggs. The egg rolls smoothly onto the egg belt. The egg belt transports the eggs to the front of the cage. Then the eggs are transferred to a vertical egg elevator. The egg guides in the front of each floor guide the eggs to different positions of the elevator without collision. In this way, the chicken cannot touch the egg, and the possibility of pecking the egg will not happen again.

The above is the way to prevent laying hens from pecking eggs shared by poultry equipment manufacturers with many years of experience. I hope that it will be helpful to you.
