Why Choose A Type Layer Battery Cages?


The A-type battery cage design is a proven poultry housing method, especially suited for open-sided or naturally ventilated poultry houses common in Africa or Asia. 

Compared to automated H-type systems, A-type cages are generally easier to install and have a lower initial investment cost, while still providing efficiency structure.

1. Space Optimization: The 3-tier vertical design increases bird density per square meter.

2. Improved Hygiene: Hens do not contact waste, lowering disease risk.

3. Low Breakage Rate: Eggs roll to the front collection tray, reducing damage and contamination.

Advantage

A Type 3 tiers 96 layer battery cage system always compare with deep litter system when some farmers want to improve his common poultry equipment to advanced battery cages.

Here is the exact advantage of battery cage system vs deep litter system:

Comparison Metric

Battery Cage System

Deep Litter System

1. Space Utilization & Stocking Density

Space Data

Approx. 430–550 cm² (0.45–0.67 sq. ft.) per bird, utilizing vertical space

Recommended approx. 0.37–0.46 m² (4–5 sq. ft.) per bird, utilizing only floor space

2. Production Performance

Laying Rate (Daily)

Approx. 88.8% daily egg production rate

Approx. 85.9% daily egg production rate

Egg Cleanliness Rate

About 77% of eggs remain clean and marketable

Only about 14% of eggs remain clean (mostly floor eggs)

3. Feed Consumption & Conversion

Average Weekly Feed Intake

Approx. 707.6 grams/bird

Approx. 740.6 grams/bird (higher due to increased activity)

Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR)

FCR is generally superior, with minimal feed wastage

FCR is slightly lower; birds use more energy for movement

4. Health & Mortality

Mortality Rate

Generally lower, easier disease management

Generally higher, faster disease spread within the flock

5. Economics & Return on Investment (ROI)

Initial Investment

Higher initial cost for equipment and automation

Lower initial cost, suitable for small-scale farmers

Return on Investment (ROI)

Approx. 17.49%

Approx. 13.93%

Net Profit Per Bird (Annual)
Significantly higher than deep litter system (up to 4.5 times more in some studies)
Lower net profit margin







Package, Delivery And Installation

1. All fittings are packed by wooden pallets and boxes, plastic wraps and boxes, nude packing, it depends.

2. Local factory and warehouse from branches of Ethiopia, Tanzania and Nigeria, depends on your order.

3. Full or less container from China branch by sea, depends on your order.

Maintaining

5 Essential Maintenance Tips For The A Type 3 Tiers 96-Layer Battery Cage System


1. Daily Inspection And Cleaning Of The Automatic Watering System

The cleanliness of the watering system is crucial for disease prevention.
Action: Daily check all nipple drinkers to ensure water flow meets standards: approximately 30-50 ml/minute for chicks and 80-120 ml/minute for layers. Ensure the water pressure remains stable within the range of 15-20 kPa (0.15-0.2 bar). Flush the water lines at least weekly using a suitable disinfectant, such as a 0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution, to prevent biofilm accumulation and maintain water hygiene.
2. Regular Manure Removal And Maintaining Proper Ventilation/Humidity
Hygiene management directly impacts flock health and the prevention of equipment corrosion.
Action: Remove manure daily or every two days. Maintain the optimal relative humidity in the house within the range of 60%-70%. Ensure ammonia concentration remains below 20 ppm (parts per million); this protects the birds' respiratory systems and effectively slows the corrosion rate of the galvanized metal cages, extending equipment life.
3. Inspect The Structural Integrity Of Cage Frames And Metal Components
The structural integrity of the equipment guarantees safety and durability.
Action: Periodically inspect all weld points, connectors, and support structures, especially weight-bearing areas. Promptly tighten any loose bolts or replace damaged components. For minor rust (less than 5% of the total surface area), apply immediate anti-rust treatment using zinc-based coatings for repair. Hot-dip galvanized cages typically have a service life of 15-20 years; correct maintenance ensures this lifespan.
4. Maintenance And Testing Of Automated (Or Semi-Automated) Equipment
Ensure all mechanical components operate efficiently to minimize downtime and failures.
Action: Monthly lubricate all moving parts, such as feed cart wheels and manure belt drive units. Check that electric motors operate within their rated current range (e.g., 220V/50Hz motors typically have a rated power between 0.75kW and 1.5kW) and ensure all electrical wiring insulation is intact.
5. Strict Disinfection Procedures And Thorough House Cleaning
Prevention is better than cure; thorough disinfection breaks disease transmission chains.
Action: Follow the "All In, All Out" principle. After one batch is finished, thoroughly clean and disinfect the house, allowing it to remain vacant and dry for at least 14 days before introducing the next flock. Disinfectants should be used strictly according to instructions; for example, use a 2% sodium hydroxide solution or a 0.3% peracetic acid solution for spraying.
