In the modern era of large-scale laying hen farming, optimizing ventilation and lighting is crucial for the health and productivity of the chicken flock. This article delves into how medium and large-scale laying hen farms can leverage the newly launched H-type layer chicken cages by Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery to improve the ventilation and lighting environment, thereby enhancing the health of the chickens and increasing the egg production rate.
The H-type laying hen cages feature an innovative stacked structure. According to industry research, this structure can increase the space utilization rate by up to 30% compared to traditional cages. With the layer-by-layer design, more chickens can be housed in the same area, which is a significant advantage for medium and large-scale farms. The enhanced space utilization not only reduces the farm's land occupation cost but also contributes to more efficient management.
In terms of ventilation and lighting, the unique design of the H-type cages allows for better air circulation. A study from a well - known agricultural research institute shows that the ventilation efficiency in H-type cages can be improved by about 25%. This means that fresh air can reach every corner of the cage, reducing the concentration of harmful gases such as ammonia and carbon dioxide. Additionally, the cage structure is designed to ensure uniform lighting distribution. Adequate and uniform lighting is essential for the physiological rhythms of chickens, which can stimulate their appetite and reproductive system, ultimately increasing the egg production rate.
When it comes to the structural performance of the H-type cages, they have significant improvements in load-bearing and wind resistance. Through data comparison, it is found that the load-bearing capacity of H-type cages is 20% higher than that of ordinary cages. This means that the cages can withstand more chickens and equipment without deformation, ensuring the long - term stability of the cage structure. In terms of wind resistance, the new design reduces the wind pressure coefficient by about 15%, making the cages more suitable for various environmental conditions.
The H-type cages are equipped with an advanced automation system. In the feeding process, the automated feeding system can accurately control the amount and time of feeding, reducing feed waste by about 15%. This not only saves feed costs but also ensures that each chicken gets the right amount of nutrition. The automated manure cleaning system can clean the manure in time, reducing the breeding of bacteria and pests. According to practical experience, the frequency of chicken diseases can be reduced by 20% with this system. The egg collection system can collect eggs in a timely and gentle manner, reducing the breakage rate of eggs to less than 3%, which is much lower than the 8 - 10% breakage rate in traditional manual collection methods.
From the perspective of animal welfare, the H-type cages pay attention to the physiological and psychological needs of chickens. The uniform lighting and optimized ventilation path ensure that chickens live in a more comfortable environment. Research shows that when chickens are in a good living environment, their stress levels are reduced, and their immune system is enhanced. This can lead to an increase in the egg production rate by about 10 - 15%. For medium and large-scale farms, this increase in egg production can bring substantial economic benefits.
Let's take a medium - sized laying hen farm in Henan as an example. After using the H-type cages from Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery, the farm increased its space utilization rate, reduced the labor cost by 30%, and increased the egg production rate by 12%. The overall economic benefit increased by about 25% within one year. This case clearly shows the practical application value of H-type cages in improving the breeding efficiency.
