A-Type Chicken Cages for 20,000 Layers Poultry Farm in Côte d’Ivoire
Project Overview
In April 2023, Livi Machinery delivered and installed a full set of A-Type Chicken Cages for Layers for a commercial layer farm in Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa. The project was built to accommodate 20,160 laying hens in a large open-sided poultry shed, combining high stocking density with semi-automated equipment to improve productivity while reducing labor intensity.

Client Needs and Customized Solution

- High-density cage systems suited for over 20,000 birds
- A layout compatible with a open-sided shed
- Cost-effective feeding and manure systems
- Durable, rust-resistant equipment suitable for the tropical climate
Livi Machinery proposed a chicken cage system using 126 sets of A-Type Chicken Cages for Layers, arranged in 3 rows, with 42 sets per row, allowing the shed to house 20,160 birds comfortably while maintaining good ventilation and daily management efficiency.
