The farm in Cameron is a large chicken farm with 15,000 laying hens, divided into three chicken houses, each housing 5,000 laying hens. The farm owner Mr. Masab is an experienced farmer who has been committed to providing consumers with fresh, high-quality eggs. In order to improve egg production and quality, he decided to use A-type layer cages to raise chickens.

Why did Mr. Masab choose to use layer cages to raise chickens?

The farmer Mr. Masab chose the A-type layer cages, which has the following advantages:
High-density breeding: A-type laying hen cages can achieve high-density breeding, save land resources, and improve the utilization rate of the chicken house.
Increase egg production: A-type laying hen cages can help laying hens stay clean and reduce the occurrence of diseases, thereby increasing egg production.
Improve egg quality: A-type laying hen cages can prevent laying hens from pecking eggs, reduce egg breakage, and improve egg quality.
Save labor and feed: A-type laying hen cages can realize automatic feeding and drinking water, reducing labor requirements, while also reducing feed waste and reducing breeding costs.

What are the benefits of using layer cages for this chicken farm?

Since Mr. Masab started using a-type layer cages, the efficiency of the farm has been significantly improved:
Increased egg production: Before using layer cages, the farm’s egg production averaged 11,000 eggs per day; after using layer cages, egg production increased to 13,000 eggs per day, an increase of 20%.
Improved egg quality: Before using laying hen cages, the egg breakage rate on the farm was as high as 5%; after using laying hen cages, the egg breakage rate was reduced to 1%, and the egg quality was greatly improved.
Reduced feed costs: Before using laying hen cages, the farm’s feed costs were 20,000 yuan per month; after using laying hen cages, the feed costs were reduced to 15,000 yuan per month, a reduction of 25%.
Reduced labor demand: Before using laying hen cages, the farm needed to hire 5 workers to take care of laying hens; after using laying hen cages, only 3 workers were needed, reducing labor demand by 40%.

In short, after farmers use laying hen cages, the farm’s efficiency has been significantly improved, egg production has increased, egg quality has improved, feed costs have been reduced, and labor requirements have been reduced. This shows that the layer cage is a very effective layer breeding equipment that can help farmers improve breeding efficiency and produce more, better, and safer eggs.
