Efficiency of battery cage system in poultry production
Time : 2022-04-27

Basic information

Poultry farming is basically centered on the production of eggs and meat which has its efficiency in the kind of housing system in which the birds are being kept. For instance, broilers are basically reared for meat consumption while layers are reared for egg production. Now to actualize the aim of keeping both broilers and layers especially for commercial purpose is to give you the optimum outcome of production in terms of meat and egg 

And to achieved this to the utmost, there is need of battery cage system in poultry farming because the importance of battery cage system in poultry farming cannot be undermined as it aids high and quality production of eggs and healthy broilers for meat among other importance. To reduce inefficiency in poultry farming, inputs should be reduced by the proportion of input slacks evaluated and farmers should strive to operate closed systems of layers and broiler production    

The invention of battery cage system in poultry farming is to increase the rate of egg and meat production as the demand in egg consumption and meat consumption is increasing on daily basis as chicken eggs and meat provide necessary protein to the body. Battery cage system comes with necessary accessories that would ensure adequate feeding and drinking of the birds. All these help the farmers to achieve their aims and objectives in poultry business

Product description

The battery cage system is made up of 2 parts the starter section, which has the medication tanks, and supplies water to the rest of the layer cages, and follower sections. You can add as many follower sections to a starter section as you wish (the length of the house will limit more follower layer cages. A battery cage system has a nipple drinking systems included in the cages and this allows the chickens to get water by pecking at a nipple. A trough runs along the length of the layer cage which makes feeding the hens very easy

Battery cage system is a small metal wire cage. This battery cage system is most commonly arranged in three rows of identical small metal wire cages connected together like cells, hence the name. Further, these rows are stacked on top of one another. This formation is called tier cage. The battery cage system is constructed for layers to produce clean and ensures an easy egg packing as well as minimal feed spillage when feeding chickens. They come with all the required water accessories and adjoining parts

The floors of the battery cages system are sloped so that eggs roll down toward the troughs on one end of the cage, where the eggs are then carried away via conveyor belt. A feeding trough is located on the other side of the cage, and food is generally always available to the chickens, they are well designed for the clean and easy collection of eggs, a seamless serving of feed and easy management of the entire battery cage system

Advantages

1. It provides high capacity for accommodation

Modern battery cage system has 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. Therefore, it is rewarding to invest in poultry farming using battery cage system with high capacity for accommodation

2. High level of automation 

It consists of fully automatic feeding, drinking water, manure removal, cooling of cooling curtains, standardized management, automatic control system, saving energy consumption, improving labor efficiency, reducing manual service feeding costs, and further improving the farm’s High efficiency of feeding in poultry farming equipment

3. Conservation of feeding concentrated feed

Cage farming can save a lot of feeding concentrated feed. Chickens are fed in cages, exercise intensity is reduced, energy consumption is less, and waste material is reduced. The materials show that cage keeping can reasonably save breeding costs by more than 25%

4. It is more convenient

The number of chickens raised can be increased three or four times than usual, greatly increasing the benefits of farmers. In addition, raising chickens in layer cages is more convenient for the management of the flock

5. It helps in providing a setting for lights 

It has been suggested that a constant lighting program such as 23 hours light and 1 hour darkness which might not be the best in terms of feed digestibility. Under constant lighting, birds tend to over consume feed, which tends to increase feed rate passage. Given that birds are fed at or near maximum genetic potential levels, this extra feed they consume has limited time to interact with digestive enzymes, resulting in reduced feed digestibility
