This poultry farming project houses 30,000 battery farm chickens in battery cage system for layers. It ensures optimal conditions for the hens, leading to an impressive egg production rate of 89%.

Project Details

Location: Lusaka, Zambia
Capacity: 30,000 laying hens
House Type: Closed Automated Chicken House
Egg Production Rate: 89%

Client Requirements and Solutions Provided

The client, an experienced farmer, sought to overcome the inefficiencies and low egg production associated with free-range chickens. To achieve this, they reached out to us to construct a facility for 30,000 battery farm chickens in Zambia. After detailed discussions, we recommended a comprehensive battery cage system for layers to maximize the efficiency and productivity of the farm.

Equipment Lists of 30,000 Battery Farm Chickens in Zambia

The battery cage system for layers forms the backbone of this project. The primary components include:

• A-type 4-tier layer cages: Designed for maximum comfort and productivity.
• Automated feeding and watering systems: Ensuring consistent and efficient nutrition delivery.
• Egg collection system: Streamlining the collection process to enhance efficiency.
• Automatic manure cleaning system: Maintaining hygiene and reducing disease risk.
• Ventilation and temperature control systems: Providing a stable environment for optimal chicken health and egg production.

Advantages of Battery Cage System for Layers

The battery cage system for layers offers significant advantages over traditional free-range methods:

• Increased Egg Production: The controlled environment of the cages optimizes laying conditions, leading to higher egg yields.
• Improved Feed Efficiency: Automated feeding systems ensure precise feed distribution, minimizing waste and maximizing nutrient utilization.
• Enhanced Disease Control: The isolated nature of the cages reduces disease transmission, promoting overall flock health.
• Labor Savings: Automation reduces the need for manual labor, allowing personnel to focus on other critical tasks.
• Space Optimization: Multi-tiered cages maximize space utilization, enabling higher stocking densities.

Customer Feedback

The poultry farmer has expressed immense satisfaction with the battery cage system for layers, stating:

"The cages have significantly boosted egg production while improving the overall health and well-being of our flock. We are delighted with the results and highly recommend this system to other poultry farmers."

Conclusion

This project showcases the potential of advanced poultry farming practices, particularly the battery cage system for layers. By providing optimal conditions for egg production, this system enhances productivity and contributes to the profitability of the 30,000 battery farm chickens in Zambia. This project sets a new benchmark for efficiency and productivity in the region's poultry farming industry.
