The layer chicken cage

Light cages for light laying hens such as Hyline white hens and Dicca white hens, and medium cages for medium laying hens like Hyline brown hens and Isha brown hens, are currently available, mainly consisting of three full or half steps.

(1) Cage frame: provides the foundational support for the cage body, including a beam and diagonal support. These are typically made from angle steel or channel steel, with a thickness between 2.0 and 2.5 mm.

(2) The chicken cage is constructed using cold-drawn steel wire, spot welded, galvanized, and assembled, incorporating the top net, bottom net, front net, back net, and cage door. Typically, the front net and top net are pressed together, as are the back net and bottom net, with a separate single net. The cage door is part of the front net or the top net, with options for some doors to be removed or flipped. The cage bottom net is sloped at an angle of 6° to 10°, extending outside the cage by 12 to 16 cm to form the egg tray. Cage specifications include a front height ranging from 40 to 45 cm and a depth of about 45 cm, with each small cage housing 3 to 5 chickens.

Multi-layer coops can promote the health of chickens

Many poultry farmers do not get healthy results from raising chickens because they neglect the use of multi-layer coops. Multi-layer coops are a great way to keep chickens healthy and promote their reproduction.

The initial multi-storey coop wasn't merely a structure with a metal mesh floor and heating elements. A well-designed multi-layer chicken coop differs significantly from a standard wire cage. The wire flooring is engineered to allow for easy fecal leakage, effectively eliminating waste around the flock and reducing the potential for fecal-borne diseases. This ensures the chickens remain healthy, safeguarding the farmers' investments.

Increase egg production

Productivity is higher in chickens that are healthy compared to those raised in less favorable conditions, and using enrichment cages can boost egg production potential.

Recent statistics show that about 60 percent of eggs utilized in foods such as mayonnaise, sandwiches, and cakes are produced by caged chickens. This data implies that chickens tend to lay eggs more frequently in cages than in other breeding environments, with multi-layer cage systems favored to increase egg production.
