2.What are the 3 types of cage systems?

Different breeding goals and site conditions determine different choices. The 3 types of egg-laying chicken cage systems in the Philippines are:
  • Fully automatic H type
  • Fully automatic A type
  • Semi-automatic A type
1. Fully automatic H type (vertical chicken cage): This is the most modern and efficient type of chicken cage. Chicken cages are stacked vertically into multiple layers, suitable for large-scale intensive egg-laying chicken business.
2.A type cage: These cages are "A" shaped, and the cage layers are arranged in a stepped manner. Feeding and drinking systems are usually located on both sides of the cage. Convenient for lighting and ventilation of chickens
Philippine market trend: Automated H-type chicken cages are more popular with farmers, and the usage rate in large breeding areas such as Luzon has increased by 30%.
