layer cages
For cage layer breeding, generally, after the chick grows to 15-18 weeks, the chick is transformed from an egg incubator to a layer cage. The layer chicken is fed for 72 weeks of age until the end of the laying cycle. So except it needs to have a friendly cage environment, and also needs to have a well-constructed chicken layer cage. This could make layer chicken play the highest role in production efficiency.
AGICO can provide users with cages for breeding livestock and poultry, such as layer cages, broiler cages, pullet cages, and rabbit cages. We also supply drinking water systems, automatic manure removal systems, automatic feeding systems, and other breeding equipment.
the parameter of layer cages
A type layer cages
A type layer cage is in a stepped shape. Every layer is symmetrical. The same number of cages on both sides and the structure is stable, generally having 3-tier or 4-tier. The cage has a simple structure, conventional operation maintenance, high automatic choosing, low investment, and quick return.
| Dimension(mm)/set | Tier | Door/tier | Bird/door | Bird/set |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2150×1870×1550 | 3 | 10 | 4 | 120 |
| 2150×2050×2065 | 4 | 10 | 4 | 160 |
H type layer cages
H type chicken cage is stacked vertically, saving land space and increasing the feed number. Compared with a type chicken cage, investment is higher, but in the long run, H type chicken cage has a higher investment return ratio than A type chicken cage. It has the advantages of high automatic, density and effectively raising labor productivity.

the benefit of layer cages
- Maximize space efficiency: multilayer design could increase space efficiency, making more chickens set in the same cage, thereby improving overall reproductive capacity.
- Save labor cost: high automatic greatly reduces the demand for labor, reduces the running cost. Increase reproductive performance. The cage provides a comfortable and controlled environment reduces pressure and increases reproductive performance. This improves fertility and chick quality.
- Enhance bio-security: automatic manure removal system is helpful to keep environment cleaning, reduce the risk of disease transmission and ensure the health of chickens and eggs.
- Easy to manage: the design of the cage, including easy access points and sliding doors, makes it simple to manage breeding chickens, making it easier to monitor health and efficiently collect eggs.
- Long-time durability: a stable structure could ensure the cage withstands the intensive demands of feeding, providing a longer service life and reliable return on investment.
