Product Overview

The Layer Parent Stock Cage System is a specialized poultry housing solution developed for breeder parent flocks and fertile egg production. The system combines galvanized cage structures with feeding, drinking, egg collection and manure management equipment to create an organized and scalable breeder-house layout.

Depending on the breeder management program, the cage arrangement can be configured as a single-tier or multi-tier installation. Cage dimensions, compartment layout and supporting equipment are selected according to bird size, stocking requirements, house dimensions and applicable welfare standards.

SHEWUYOU can integrate the cage system with automatic feeding, nipple drinking, egg collection, manure removal, lighting, ventilation and environmental control equipment according to commercial breeder farm requirements.

Key Features
  • Parent stock application: Designed specifically for layer breeder management and fertile egg production.
  • Galvanized steel construction: Cage mesh, frames and supporting components provide structural strength and corrosion resistance.
  • Flexible cage layout: Single-tier and multi-tier arrangements can be selected according to farm requirements.
  • Organized feeding: Feed troughs and automatic feeding equipment can distribute feed efficiently along cage rows.
  • Nipple drinking system: Provides controlled water delivery while helping maintain cleaner cage conditions.
  • Fertile egg handling: Cage-floor and collection arrangements can be designed for smooth egg movement and convenient collection.
  • Automatic manure removal: PP manure belts or other mechanical systems can separate manure from the bird area.
  • Efficient space utilization: Multi-tier configurations increase housing capacity within the available poultry-house footprint.
  • Automation compatibility: Suitable for integration with feeding, drinking, egg collection, manure removal and environmental control systems.
  • Project customization: Cage dimensions, tier quantity and equipment configuration are available according to project requirements.
Structural Components
  • Galvanized Cage Frame: Provides the main structural support for each breeder cage row.
  • Wire Mesh Panels: Form the cage floor, side walls, partitions and doors.
  • Cage Doors: Allow convenient bird placement, inspection and flock management.
  • Feed Troughs: Provide accessible feeding positions along the cage frontage.
  • Automatic Feeding Equipment: Optional feed carts, chain feeders or other suitable distribution systems.
  • Nipple Drinking Lines: Deliver water to designated drinking points inside each cage level.
  • Egg Collection System: Manual collection areas or automatic egg belts can be incorporated according to the selected configuration.
  • Manure Removal System: PP manure belts or mechanical manure-handling equipment remove waste from underneath the cages.
  • Support Structure: Stabilizes the complete cage installation inside the poultry house.
  • Environmental Interfaces: Cage layout can be coordinated with ventilation, lighting and climate-control equipment.
Working Principle

Parent-stock birds are housed in purpose-designed breeder cage compartments with direct access to feed and drinking water. The cage arrangement organizes flock management while allowing routine inspection and production monitoring.

Feed is distributed manually or automatically through front-mounted troughs, while nipple drinking lines provide water throughout the production period.

Produced eggs move toward the designated collection area according to cage-floor design. Where automatic collection is installed, egg belts transfer fertile eggs from the cage rows toward a centralized collection point for further hatchery handling.

Manure passes through the cage floor and is collected underneath the birds. Automatic manure belts can transport waste toward the discharge end, helping separate manure from the breeder housing area.

Installation & Maintenance

Installation

  1. Confirm poultry-house length, width, ceiling height, service aisles and cage-row layout.
  2. Mark cage positioning lines and verify floor level before assembly.
  3. Install the supporting frames and connect the cage sections securely.
  4. Install wire panels, partitions, cage doors and feed troughs.
  5. Install automatic feeding equipment where included.
  6. Install nipple drinking pipes, filters and pressure-control components.
  7. Install egg collection belts or manual collection components according to the selected configuration.
  8. Install manure belts and discharge equipment where required.
  9. Connect lighting, ventilation and environmental control equipment.
  10. Test feeding, drinking, egg collection, manure removal and safety systems before bird placement.

Maintenance

  • Inspect cage frames, mesh panels, doors and structural connections regularly.
  • Check feed troughs, motors, chains and feeding components for correct operation.
  • Inspect nipple drinkers, filters, regulators and waterlines for leakage or blockage.
  • Check egg belts, rollers and transfer sections where automatic egg collection is installed.
  • Maintain manure belt alignment, scrapers and drive components.
  • Clean and disinfect the complete breeder cage installation between flocks according to farm biosecurity procedures.
  • Replace damaged wire, fasteners and other worn components before the next production cycle.
