How to choose laying hen cages in the UK?

Farmers know that laying hen cages are the equipment that farmers most choose when raising chickens. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a cage suitable for chickens in order for them to grow healthily. Many farmers who raise chickens on a large scale will choose to go to the poultry equipment manufacturers for field inspections. However, recently there are many British customers who raise chickens in Ghana or Nigeria, but they only invest. They do not know if they choose a good chicken cage.

Poultry battery cages are the basic hardware equipment for caged chickens. Therefore, it is very important to choose a suitable cage and find a suitable layer cage manufacturer. So, how to choose a chicken coop? According to experience: different breeds of chickens are suitable for different cages. The author suggests that farmers should pay attention to the following points when purchasing chicken cages:

1. The viewpoint of the plan of rolling off the bottom of the laying hen cages. The point of view of the egg rolling at the bottom of the chicken cage must be precise. The small point of view cannot be rolled out of the egg in time. It may be trampled by the chicken. The large point of view simply falls to the ground and breaks, or the force of rolling the egg is so large that it breaks each other. The general slope of the cage bottom should be maintained at 7 to 8 degrees.

2. The distance of the iron bars at the bottom of the cage. The goal of the chicken cage is also very important. It is generally advocated that the distance is 2.5 cm × 5 cm. It is wrong to think that the size of the broiler breeder can increase the distance. It is recommended that chicken farms with sufficient funds be laid with a plastic net common to the bottom of the cage. Practice has proved that plastic nets can cushion the strength of eggs hitting the net and rolling down against the bottom of the net, not only greatly reducing the egg breaking rate, but also reducing the incidence of leg disease and pleurisy.

3. Pay attention to the connection between the bottom cage and the cage. Buyers need to be reminded here that they must pay attention to the handling of the connection between the cage and the cage. It must be done carefully, and no large open space should be left, because there are more eggs falling here. If you did not pay attention to check this detail when purchasing chicken cages, then it is recommended that you use plastic cable ties, thin wires or thin ropes to make a cross. You can add wooden or iron baffles to the cages at both ends of the chicken house. To prevent it from falling to the ground.

4. Raw material selection of chicken cage. The selection of manufacturing materials for chicken cages is very elaborate. The author recommends that suitable and resistant materials be selected. The diameter of the wire at the bottom of the cage is about 2 mm. The egg breaking rate is the smallest. The larger the wire diameter, the easier it is to form a broken egg.
