When buying chicken cages, you must choose chicken cages according to the area of the chicken coop, so that you can raise them reasonably, and the breeding density should not be too large.

1.Chicken cage material selection

Choose suitable tough materials, hot-dip galvanized material, Q235 steel. more durable.

When the diameter of the iron wire at the bottom of the cage is about 2 mm, the egg breakage rate is the smallest. The larger the wire diameter, the easier it is to cause egg breakage.

The angle of egg roll design at the bottom of the layer cage. The angle of rolling the eggs at the bottom of the chicken cage should be accurate. If the eggs cannot be rolled out in time at a small angle, they may be trampled by the chickens. If they are at a large angle, they will easily fall to the ground and be damaged or cause the eggs to roll because of the high momentum and collide with each other. The general slope of the cage bottom should be kept at 7-8 degrees.

2.The distance between the iron bars at the bottom of the cage.

This indicator of the chicken cage is also very important, and the general recommended spacing is 2.5 cm x 5 cm. The bottom of the cage is laid with a plastic net that is consistent with the mesh of the bottom of the cage. Practice has proved that the plastic net can buffer the force of eggs hitting the net and rolling down to the bottom of the net, which not only greatly reduces the egg breaking rate, but also reduces the incidence of leg disease and thoracic inflammation.

3.Pay attention to the connection between the chicken cage and the bottom net between the chicken cage.

Here, buyers need to be reminded to pay attention to the treatment of the connection between the chicken cage and the bottom net of the chicken cage. It must be done carefully, and no large gaps should be left, because there are more eggs on the ground here. If you didn’t pay attention to check this detail when buying chicken coops, then we recommend that you use plastic ties, thin wires or strings to make criss-cross windings, and wooden or iron baffles can be added to the cages at both ends of the chicken coop to prevent them from rolling to the ground.

4.Pay attention to the strength of the merchant.
