With the development of the chicken industry, automated broiler breeding has gradually developed from ground-level breeding to three-dimensional cage breeding. Especially in many countries, due to the lack of land, with the emergence of factory chicken breeding, automated cage breeding is widely used. Not only is the scale large, but it also saves manpower and material resources. Take the broiler cage as an example. The benefits are shown in the following aspects:
The level of automation for broiler chicken cages is high: automatic feeding, drinking water, cleaning manure, wet curtain cooling, centralized management, automatic control, saving energy consumption, reducing artificial feeding costs, and greatly improving the breeding efficiency of farmers.
The chicken flock is well-prevented and effectively prevents infectious diseases: the chicken does not touch the feces, which can make the chicken grow strong and provide a clean and warm growth environment for the chicken, and the slaughter time is much earlier. Save space and improve the stocking density: the cage density is more than 3 times higher than the horizontal density.
Broiler cages can save a lot of farming feed, chickens are kept in cages, the amount of exercise is reduced, the energy consumption is less, and the waste of feed is reduced. And it is convenient for breeding users to manage livestock and poultry, saving more time to deal with other things.
Cage chickens can be installed more than ground chickens, and house use is more economical. Cage-bred chickens do not touch the ground or feces, which is good for the prevention and control of various parasites and other infectious diseases. Cage-raised chickens facilitate the implementation of mechanized breeding, save labor, reduce labor intensity, and so on.
