The cage-raising method involves using a chicken cage to house the chickens. Since the chickens are confined within the cages and cannot choose their environmental conditions, they entirely depend on humans to provide various survival and production conditions. Therefore, raising chickens in cages requires higher levels of feeding and management technology.

Cage rearing stands as the most commonly employed three-dimensional method in chicken production and is the main form of off-ground rearing. Over 80% of laying hens in developed nations are kept in cages. This method has gained traction in China in recent years, showing promising results. With advancements in the materials and structures of chicken cages, cage rearing is projected to be the future development path for commercial laying hens, chicks, breeders, and broilers.Cage rearing provides significant benefits over flat rearing: (1) Greater feeding density, accommodating 3 to 5 times more chickens in the same area, thus saving on housing and land. (2) Enhanced epidemic prevention by keeping chickens in cages. (3) Easier management, labor savings, and increased labor productivity. (4) Easy control of environmental conditions, ensuring uniform growth and a high, stable laying rate. (5) Facilitates the observation and culling of unhealthy chickens, ensuring the health and productivity of the flock. (6) Less ground contact reduces parasitic diseases and medication costs. No need for bedding material, saving expenses. Cleaner chicken houses and uncontaminated eggs enhance product quality. (7) Limited movement reduces feed consumption and improves conversion efficiency, leading to better economic outcomes. (8) Chicken manure is easily collected and can be fermented into valuable feed for pigs and fish.

Standardized chicken farming process design

Standardized chicken farming generally adopts closed feeding and implements a full in and out system. Its characteristics are: mechanical feeding, automatic drinking water, mechanical ventilation, defecation, automatic lighting, and high-density cage farming. Each square meter of construction area can raise 11-12 laying hens. This factory chicken farming technology is a comprehensive scientific and technological achievement that integrates modern technology from multiple disciplines, and its characteristics are reflected in the following aspects: 1. Excellent breeds; 2. Full price formula feed; 3. Comprehensive disease prevention and control system; 4. The application of scientific breeding environment, complete sets of chicken breeding equipment, and livestock engineering technology; 5. Scientific feeding and management techniques.

Precautions of battery chicken cage system

If the stocking density exceeds the number of chicken cages, it will restrict the activities of the chickens and affect the growth and development. Moreover, too many numbers will also affect the air quality of the chicken coops and the service life of the chicken coops, and may also cause the chickens to become stronger. Bullying, pecking and other phenomena occur, so farmers should make reasonable adjustments in time according to the growth stage of the flock.
