In order to save space and make full use of the area of the chicken house, many small farmers choose to use a four-tiered layer cage to breed laying hens. Compared to the chicken battery cages, four-tiered layer chicken cages are not so demanding on equipment and feeding techniques, so they are very popular among small farmers. The authors will talk about the size and advantages of the four-tiered layer cage.
Four-tier ladder layer cage size:
Stepped four-layer four-door, each group length 187cm, each group spans 220cm, the unit number is 32, the unit length is 47cm, the unit depth is 37cm, the inner and outer height is 33/38cm, and the feeding amount is 128 pieces.
Stepped four-layer five-door, each group is 195cm in length, each group spans 220cm, the unit number is 40, the unit length is 40cm, the unit depth is 37cm, the inner and outer height is 33/38cm, and the feeding amount is 120.
Four-tiered ladder layer cage advantage:
1. The use of stepped layer cages can make reasonable use of feed and reduce waste. The use of a deep trough can prevent the chickens from squirting in the foraging space, improve the utilization of feed, and save the farmers a waste of funds.
2. It is easy to use and easy to manage. The cage door of the stepped layer cage is designed with push-pull type. If the chickens are fighting or epidemic, the staff can timely capture and manage the chicken.
3. The ladder type layer cage is safe to use. The welding density of the bottom net and the top net of the cage net can be adjusted to avoid the phenomenon of hanged chicken; the thickening of the wire around the net can increase the pressure bearing capacity of the chicken cage.
4. It can prevent infectious diseases and increase the survival rate of chickens. The phase error between the cages of the stepped laying hens is conducive to the ventilation of the cages and the treatment of the feces, which can improve the sewage discharge efficiency of the workers, facilitate the maintenance of the hygiene of the chicken farms, and help the chickens to prevent diseases.
