As labor costs continue to rise, the high - efficiency H - type automated layer cages launched by Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery help farms achieve full - process optimization from feeding to manure cleaning. This product integrates an automatic feeding system, an egg collection belt, and manure cleaning equipment, significantly reducing the frequency of manual operations and costs. It also effectively reduces the stress response of the chicken flock, improving the egg - laying rate and egg quality. This article delves into the impact of each automated link on farming efficiency and health management. Combined with actual cases, it illustrates the synergistic advantages of the intelligent temperature control and automatic manure cleaning systems, meeting the needs of different - scale farms and propelling modern layer farming to a new height of 'labor - saving, high - yield, and low - disease'.

In the ever - evolving landscape of modern egg production, the challenges of rising labor costs and maintaining high - quality egg output are becoming increasingly prominent. Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery has stepped forward with an innovative solution: the high - efficiency H - type automated chicken cage, which offers a comprehensive optimization plan from feeding to manure cleaning.

The Labor Challenges in Traditional Egg Farming

Traditional egg farms are facing significant human resource challenges. On average, a medium - sized egg farm with about 10,000 chickens may require 5 - 7 full - time workers for daily operations such as feeding, egg collection, and manure cleaning. With the continuous rise of labor costs, which have increased by about 20% in the past five years, these farms are under great financial pressure. Moreover, manual operations often lead to inconsistent management, which can cause stress to the chickens, resulting in a decrease in egg production by about 10 - 15% and an increase in egg breakage rates by about 5 - 8%.

How the Automated Chicken Cage Solves the Problems

Precision Feeding Management

The automated chicken cage is equipped with an automatic feeding system. This system can adjust the feeding amount according to the age of the chickens. For example, for young chickens aged 1 - 2 weeks, the system can provide about 20 - 30 grams of feed per chicken per day, while for adult laying hens, it can provide 100 - 120 grams per day. This precision feeding not only ensures the healthy growth of the chickens but also reduces feed waste by about 15 - 20%. According to a case study of a farm in Shandong, after using the automated feeding system, the feed cost per egg decreased by about 0.1 yuan.

Efficient Egg Collection

The integrated egg collection belt in the cage can collect eggs at regular intervals. By adjusting the collection frequency, the freshness of the eggs can be guaranteed, and the breakage rate can be reduced. A farm in Henan increased the egg collection frequency from twice a day to four times a day. As a result, the egg breakage rate decreased from 3% to 1%, and the proportion of fresh eggs increased from 80% to 90%.

Manure Cleaning and Environmental Improvement

The manure cleaning system in the automated chicken cage plays a crucial role in reducing ammonia levels and preventing respiratory diseases. Ammonia levels in the chicken coop can be reduced by about 60 - 70% with regular manure cleaning. In a farm in Hebei, after using the automated manure cleaning system, the incidence of respiratory diseases in chickens decreased from 15% to 5%. The intelligent temperature control system works in tandem with the automated manure cleaning system. In summer, the temperature in the chicken coop can be maintained at about 25 - 28°C, and in winter, it can be kept at about 15 - 18°C, creating a more comfortable environment for the chickens.

Case Studies and Expert Insights

To further illustrate the effectiveness of the automated chicken cage, let's look at some real - world examples. A large - scale farm in Jiangsu with 50,000 chickens reduced its labor force from 25 to 10 after adopting the automated chicken cage system. At the same time, the egg production increased by about 12%, and the overall profit increased by about 20%. We also interviewed Dr. Smith, an industry expert, who said, "The automated chicken cage is a revolutionary product in the egg - farming industry. It combines advanced technology with practical needs, providing a comprehensive solution for modern egg farms."
