A Type Chicken Cages for 5,000 Layers Farm in Nigeria
Project Overview
In early 2025, Livi Machinery successfully delivered and guided the installation of A Type Chicken Cages for a medium-sized 5,000-layer poultry farm in Ogun State, Nigeria. The client was an emerging poultry farmer seeking to upgrade from deep litter farming to cage farming to improve egg production, bird health, and management efficiency.
Client Requirements and Customized Solution
The client approached Livi Machinery with the following requirements:
- Transition from floor-based system to cage farming
- House approximately 5,000 laying hens in a compact and manageable space
- Minimize feed waste and improve manure management
- Ensure durability and ease of maintenance
Based on these needs, our team recommended a 4-tier A Type Chicken Cages system equipped with:
- Nipple drinking lines with pressure regulators
- Trough-type manual feeding system (with optional future upgrade to automatic feeding)
- Scraper-type automatic manure removal system
- Galvanized cage mesh for extended service life
This solution provided the client with a cost-effective and scalable poultry cage system that significantly reduced labor and increased productivity.
Farm Layout and Equipment Supplied
The poultry house was designed with a 2-row layout, allowing for balanced ventilation and ease of movement. Each row consisted of multiple cage units to accommodate the 5,000 layers.
Main Equipment List:
- A Type 3-tier chicken cages (16 sets per row, 32 sets total)
- Manure scraper system with motorized winch
- Drinking system with PVC pipes, water tanks
- Spare parts and installation manuals
- Local technician support for installation guidance
Installation and Training
The installation was carried out by a local construction team under the remote guidance of Livi’s technical engineers. We provided detailed house layout drawings and video tutorials. The client and his workers were trained on:
- Daily bird management in cages
- Proper water line flushing and feed distribution
- Scheduled manure removal operations
The entire system was fully operational within two weeks after delivery.
Customer Feedback
The Nigerian farm owner was extremely satisfied with the result. The A Type Chicken Cages system not only improved space utilization and bird cleanliness but also led to a noticeable improvement in egg production consistency. The client praised the cage strength, the simple maintenance process, and the smooth manure removal system. They have expressed intent to expand to a 10,000-bird farm within the next year — again using Livi Machinery as their supplier.
