What to Consider When Buying Laying Hen Cage Equipment

Feb. 05, 2025

What should I pay attention to when purchasing laying hen cage equipment?



When purchasing laying hen cage equipment, you need to pay attention to the quality of the cage (galvanizing), the quality of the cage frame (thickness), the quality of the manure belt (high-frequency welding or ordinary rubber strips, etc.)


1. Pay attention to the quality of the cage (galvanizing). How can you choose a chicken cage with good quality and long life? In laying hen cage equipment, the chicken cage is in direct contact with the chicken, and it needs to be selected according to the financial situation. There are currently four production processes of cages on the market for chicken farmers to choose from: 1: Cold galvanizing, also called electrogalvanizing, with a thin galvanized layer, The advantages of cold galvanizing are smooth surface and high brightness; however, it generally rusts after 2-3 years of use and has a lifespan of 6-7 years. Cold galvanizing can also be divided into colored zinc plating or silver zinc plating. 2: Hot-dip galvanizing, also called hot-dip galvanizing, has a thick galvanizing layer. Generally, the galvanizing layer is qualified only when it exceeds 8. It is generally not easy to rust and has high corrosion resistance. It can generally be used for 15-20 years, but the disadvantage is that the zinc immersion in the galvanizing pool is uneven, resulting in many burrs and requiring later manual processing. Hot-dip galvanized chicken cages are the first choice for automated breeding, but the price is generally higher than others. Hot-dip galvanizing is durable. 3: Spray-dip chicken cages. It uses powdered paint to adsorb onto the cage through the gravity of high-voltage static electricity. In the chicken cage and A highly corrosion-resistant phosphating film is formed in the middle of the coating, but the sprayed chicken cage is more likely to stick to chicken manure, and it is easy to age and fall off over time. This type of chicken cage is relatively rare in the market and the market is relatively small. Four: zinc-aluminum alloy chicken cage. Direct welding with zinc-aluminum alloy wire, no further process treatment is done in the later stage. This type of chicken cage mesh has relatively high welding requirements. If the welding is not good, the welding point will rust. If the process is well mastered, the service life is generally more than 10 years. Most imported equipment uses this type of mesh. If you have strong funds, it is recommended to choose hot-dip galvanized laying hen cages, and if you have funds, you can generally choose cold-dip galvanized laying hen cages.


2. Pay attention to the quality of the cage frame (thickness), eggs Chicken cage frames are divided into: angle iron welding, generally 3mm national standard and 4mm national standard. Square tube welding: 3*3 square tube, flat iron welding, Yuanbao type and frame type egg chicken cage.


3. Pay attention to the quality of the manure belt (high-frequency welding or ordinary rubber strips and other issues): quality determines everything. First of all, the manure belt strips are divided into pure raw material white rubber strips and black rubber strips. The high-frequency welding rubber strips are oblate in shape, and the ordinary rubber strips are welded in a round shape. High-frequency rubber strips must be welded. The manure belt joints do not use high-frequency spot welding technology, which leads to deviation and easy cracking. The manure belt is usually bright milky white, with unique performance, improved tensile strength, impact resistance, low temperature resistance, Strong toughness, corrosion resistance, low friction coefficient, this manure cleaning belt can adapt to various working environments. The selected manure cleaning belt has too high impurity content and uneven composition arrangement, resulting in deviation.


Pay more attention to the above 3 points when purchasing. Other purchases such as drinking water system, feeding system, temperature control system, and lighting system need to choose suitable products according to financial conditions.


There are two types of automatic egg-laying chicken cage equipment to choose from, one is the ladder-type egg-laying chicken cage equipment, and the other is the stacking egg-laying chicken cage equipment. If you raise more than 10,000 laying hens, choose the stacking egg-laying chicken cage. Although it is expensive, it has a high degree of automation and can raise more laying hens per unit area.
