Basic information
Maintaining poultry battery cages has been the major challenge of every poultry farmer. Bird cages are homes for domesticated birds. Bird cages are constructed to be large enough to accommodate the motion and daily activities of domesticated birds. Cages are generally constructed of wire mesh. Some manufacturers flatten the mesh and others leave the wire round just as it is obtained from the manufacturer. Cages must be constructed with mesh carefully welded in a grid that will not permit a bird to put his or her head through the mesh and strangle. The mesh is generally 1.5 × I in (3.8 × 2.5 cm) in grid. Even larger birds such as parrots are rarely put into cages with mesh larger than 1 × 1 in (2.5 × 2.5 cm). poultry battery cages are used in the chicken industry
There are so many factors that contribute to cage rusting. But one thing to pay attention to when using is to prevent rust. However, environmental problems in chicken cages will directly affect the growth status and production efficiency of chickens
Therefore, it is recommended that adequate cleaning and disinfecting are done to the chicken cage. Most of the poultry battery cages we use are made of metal. Because it is metal. So, it will inevitably rust, if not properly taking care of. It will be more corrosive. If the chicken skin touches the rusty part, this is not necessarily a good thing
Due to the high density of chickens and strict requirement on facilities, the equipment maintenance should be highly valued to avoid damages. So how to maintain the battery cage system
Product description
Talking about poultry battery cages, the battery cage system is more effective than the deep litter system. The quality depends on the type of wire that was used. The best wire is galvanized wire, anti-corrosive or rust proof that can last 25 years. poultry battery cages rarely spoil and require very little maintenance. So, when going for poultry battery cages, ask for galvanized wire cages. There is another type of cage that is more economical but cannot last for 25 years like the imported cage

Components
The essential components of the bird cage are very simple. Most China made cages are made from wire mesh
These rolls generally come in varying widths and are keyed to the widths of the panels to be cut from them
These rolls may be between 100-200 ft (30-61 m) in length and are very heavy. Bird cage makers do not manufacture the mesh; instead, they purchase it from wire mesh or fencing manufacturers
A quality bird cage must be made from precisely configured mesh, or the cage will not be stable or safe for the bird
As the panels and sides are cut directly from the mesh, it must be evenly spaced, or the cut panels will not meet precisely at the edges. American manufacturers seek suppliers who can deliver tolerance welded wire meaning that the mesh is produced within minute tolerances, generally assumed to vary less than 0.13 in (3.2 mm) within a 10 ft (305 cm) length. The width of the mesh varies greatly depending on which species of bird the cage is designed to accommodate. Larger birds can have a slightly larger mesh, but manufacturers are careful to keep the mesh tight
Additionally, most American bird cages are made from galvanized steel as this is a material that sturdy and inexpensive, thus keeping the cost of the cage reasonable. Some bird breeders prefer a stainless-steel cage
However, stainless steel mesh is nearly five times the cost of galvanized steel mesh and stainless-steel cages can be costly. Welded Wire Mesh are the suitable products for constructing animal cages, enclosure works, fabricating of wire containers and baskets, grills, partitions, machine protection fences, gratings and other construction applications
The finished welded mesh offers flat and uniform surface, firm structure, good integrity. The welded wire mesh is the most excellent anti-corrosion resistance among all the steel wire mesh products, it is also the most versatile wire mesh due to its wide application in different fields. The welded wire mesh can be galvanized, PVC coated, or stainless-steel welded wire mesh
Precautions
1. Cleaning of chicken cage equipment and cages
Mainly designed with galvanized mesh. It is not easy to scratch under normal conditions. However, some impurities will adhere during use. Such as chicken feathers, feed and chicken manure. It took a long time. It may scab and harden. So, we need to take it out for cleaning
2. Sterilization of chicken cages
Keep broilers in chicken cages at a high density. Therefore, spray disinfection is used. If the disinfection is not clean. Bacteria and viruses will easily remain. This is not conducive to future feeding and disease prevention. Pay attention to the rotation and dosage of disinfectants during disinfection
The above is a relatively simple cleaning method. In fact, in order to keep the chicken coop equipment tidy. The meticulous maintenance of the equipment is essential. In normal use. We try not to pull, pull and close the door too hard. To reduce the collision of materials. Usually when raising chickens. Do not spread the feed around the chicken coop. Do not soak in liquid. Usually, the correct installation method is to use it, which is an effective way to extend the service life of chicken cage equipment
The maintenance of the broiler battery cage system of poultry determines how long it can be used. Only maintain the equipment can be beneficial to the economic benefits of farmers
Others include
1. Power assurance system
In addition to the conventional power system, generators that match the chicken farm must be required and can be switched automatically
2. Illumination
Ensure uniform illumination in the house, use a split-level installation of the bulb or use a row of lights
3. Drinking water system
The water supply line of the layered layer cage equipment is set in the middle of the top of each layer of the chicken cage. Two nipples are set in each cage for the chickens on the left and right sides to drink water. This way, the spray won't fall into the manure, making it even drier. A strainer, a smart water meter, a dosing device and a pressure reducing regulator are provided at the front of each water line. With the digital information of the smart water meter, the daily drinking situation of the chickens can be understood, and the health status of the chickens can also be judged
4. Automatic egg collection and delivery system
The automatic egg collection and delivery system is an important part of the cascading laying hen cage equipment. In the process of collecting and transporting eggs, any link may affect the rate of breaking eggs. In order to achieve the best results in the whole egg collection process, the design of the egg collection system considers the following two main problems
