Introduction of A frame pullet cage or breeder cage system
Time : 2010-05-12

Basic information

The way pullets are reared influences the bird’s welfare throughout their entire life. In higher welfare systems there is a greater potential for birds to express natural behaviors. The move from floor rearing systems to cage system greatly improves the welfare of laying hens. Pullets need to be reared in environments they will experience when they are laying eggs

The primary welfare problems suffered by free range hens include poor ranging behavior, feather pecking and keel bone fractures. With appropriate rearing of pullets, their welfare at an older age may also be improved. The pullet cage prevent chickens from engaging in most of their natural behaviors, including perching, roosting, dust-bathing, foraging, and exploring

Introduction of A frame pullet cage or breeder cage system


Product description

A-frame pullet cage systems are available with 3 decks, the appropriate size for the entire period prior to the laying stage. This system was designed with greater height and the ability to raise the nipple drinkers to accommodate to the growing size of the pullets. This allows for ease of access to water during the entire pullet period prior the laying stage

This system was engineered with a cage stand and reinforces feeder trough support in heavy galvanized steel every 4 feet on every tier. This cage is created with fully automated system, which increases efficiency and lower labour cost. All a-frame cage systems are equipped with polypropylene manure deflectors to a bottom pit, without maintenance required until the end of the flock cycle

Features of A-frame of pullet cage 

1. Wire mesh

A type with hot galvanized, angle iron or 6mm thick steel flat

Weaving process include cutting, stamping, bending, welding and forming

Advantages of the mesh includes strong, sturdy and smooth

Durability is 20-25 years

High quality un-annealed steel wire

Weaving process requires welding and then bending

Surface treatment is either hot dip or electro galvanize

Smooth surface, good elasticity, high strength, and so on

2. Water drinking line

Highly precise stainless steel ball

High sensitivity, 360 ̊ active sealed stem

No leakage guarantees dry of chicken manure

Installation, disassembly, convenient and cleaning is easy no need for glue and bonding

3. Feeder trough 

Color depends on your request, either white or green 

Plastic food trough material is raw polyethylene, super toughness, with anti-fall, anti-pressure, anti-aging

The trough is equipped with an adjustment plate, which can effectively meet the chick feeding at different growth stages, and has sufficient feeding, eating position, uniformity and health of the chicken, durable, transport does not occupy the place, will not damage. The design of the long groove edge of the feeder though is very good, which reduces the waste of the chicken food

4. Front water supply 

In front of poultry house there is a filter for water cleaning, a medicator and water meter

Pressure regulator concentration of chemical feeder is adjustable and the water meter is numerable

The pressure regulator it can adjust pressure at the


Benefits

1. A-frame pullet cage helps boost health of the chicken 

Some poultry farmers do not get healthy results from their chicken rearing because they have ignored the use of battery cages. A-frame pullet cages are very good means of accommodating your chickens in healthy conditions that will boost their reproduction. The wire floor is designed to allow manure go through it, taking it away from the chickens surroundings and eventually minimizing the risks of manure-borne diseases. This will keep the chickens healthy and make chicken rearing a task worthwhile for the poultry farmer

2. Qualitative feeding for the chicken

The pullet cage makes feeding for chickens a habitual process which connotes more care for the chickens. This is because the chickens are fed through a long bisected metal or plastic pipe and water is served to them with overhead nipple systems which are set before the chickens. This makes it easy for the poultry farmer to care for the chickens with frequent and adequate food and water

3. Low cost of labour

pullet cage reduces labor by the poultry farmer. This is because the chickens are well-organized and conducted to be in rows with several facilities for their feeding, carriers of their faeces droppings adequately positioned and the eggs rolling to the appropriate places designed in the battery cages. The farmer will simply do the job of pouring feed and water in the designated areas, cleaning the faeces that drop and packing the eggs. This reduces stress for the farmer and the need to employ many workers for poultry farms will be minimized. In the long run, poultry farming will be more rewarding for the poultry workers

4. Pullet cage have feeder that minimize feed spillage

pullet cages make it easy for poultry farmers to care adequately for their chickens. Despite this dire need to take care of the chickens, battery cages help the poultry farmer to minimize feed spillage when feeding chickens. It is easy to minimize feed spillage with battery cages because they are designed with standard accessories for holding food and water, especially the amount required for feeding the chickens daily

5. High capacity for accommodation

pullet cage have high capacity to accommodate a larger number of chickens within a limited space, that means, battery cages will save you cost in construction and help you maximize the use of whatever space you have available


Characteristics 

1. Steel wire has strong tensile and compressive properties

2. It is convenient to observe the growth of chicks, which is convenient for grouping and selection

3. Automatic timing and clearing of feces effectively reduces the disease infection rate and mortality of chicks

4. The trough is equipped with an adjustment plate, which can effectively meet the chick feeding at different growth stages, and has sufficient feeding, eating position, uniformity and health of the chicken

5. Chicken feeding per unit area has increased by 50%-100%

6. The pressure regulator can adjust the water pressure to a certain amount, and the water supply of each nipple drinker is evenly distributed to ensure sufficient water supply for the chicks


Advantages of A-frame pullet cage

1. Galvanized low carbon steel cold drawn steel wire has high tensile strength and extension rate

2. Raising density per unit area can increase 50%-100% compared with flooring system

3. The possibilities of infection diseases caused by manure decrease, thus death rate is minimized

4. Amount of exercise is small, thus more feed is saved by the special design of the feeding trough which has feed trough adjust board

5. Convenient for observing growth condition of birds, grouping and selection
