This is a chicken farm located in Dares Salaam, Tanzania, which raises 10,000 laying hens using A type layer cages.

 

Farm background and details:

The chicken farm owner, Lucas, is a hard-working farmer who owns a 10-acre farm in Tanzania. He has been growing corn, wheat and vegetables on the farm, but his income is not stable. In order to increase his income, Lucas decided to invest in laying hen farming.

After some inspection and research, Lucas decided to use layer cages to raise chickens. He believes that chicken cage farming can not only save space, but also improve the egg production rate of laying hens.

According to Lucas's needs, we designed two chicken houses for the farm. Each hen house is 34*7m in size and can accommodate 5,120 laying hens. A total of 10,000 chicken can be accommodated. So he purchased 64 sets of A-type layer cages, each of which can accommodate 160 chickens, and can raise a total of 10,240 laying hens.

Advantages of A type layer cages:

Lucas chose to raise laying hens in cages mainly because layer cages have the following advantages:

Saving space: The laying hens can be placed layer by layer in the laying hen cages, which greatly saves space. This is important for farmers like Lucas who have limited land area.

Improve egg production rate: Laying hen cages can prevent laying hens from pecking each other and reduce stress reactions, thereby increasing the egg production rate of laying hens.

Convenient management: The laying hen cages can gather the laying hens in one place, making it convenient for managers to carry out feeding, cleaning and epidemic prevention.

 

Benefit Analysis:

Since the chickens were raised in layer cages, the egg production rate of the laying hens has increased by 10%, and the daily egg production has reached 10,000. Lucas sold the eggs for $0.30 each, generating sales of $3,000 a day.

In addition to the income from egg sales, Lucas sells laying hen manure as fertilizer, earning an additional $1,000 a year. Therefore, Lucas can earn $43,800 a year from raising chickens in a type layer cages, which is a profit of $30,000 after costs.

 

Conclusion:

Layer cages are an efficient way to raise chickens, which can greatly increase egg production rates and save space. For those farmers who want to increase their income from laying hens, cage raising of laying hens is a very good choice.

Lucas is one of the success stories of laying hens in layer chicken cages. Since the chicks were raised in A type layer chicken cages, the egg production rate of the laying hens has increased by 20%, and the number of eggs per day has reached 10,000. Lucas can earn $43,800 a year from raising laying hens in cages, which is a profit of $30,000 after costs.
