Designing the Ideal Poultry House for Layers with Battery Cages
2025-07-30
A well-designed poultry house for layers is essential for maintaining hen comfort, health, and high egg production. Modern egg farms rely on smart structural design, effective climate control, and integrated battery cage systems to ensure optimal results.
Key Elements of an Ideal Layer Poultry House
Component | Function | Livi Machinery Solutions |
Ventilation System | Maintains air quality, removes heat & humidity | Automated ventilation fans and tunnel systems |
Lighting System | Regulates laying cycles and hen behavior | Programmable LED lighting units |
Temperature Control | Prevents heat stress or cold exposure | Climate controllers and insulation systems |
Cage System Design | Enhances hen welfare, feeding efficiency, egg collection | A-Type and H-Type layer cage systems |
Optimizing Airflow with Poultry Ventilation Systems
Poor ventilation leads to high ammonia levels, heat stress, and disease. Livi’s poultry ventilation system maintains steady airflow, reduces humidity, and keeps air ammonia-free. Our tunnel ventilation and negative pressure fans are tailored to your house size and climate.

Designing the Ideal Poultry House for Layers with Battery Cages
Lighting for Peak Egg Production
Hens need 14–16 hours of light per day to sustain laying. Uneven or insufficient lighting leads to reduced output. Livi’s automated lighting systems deliver consistent illumination and programmable cycles for energy-efficient control of laying patterns.
Smart Temperature and Climate Control
Extreme heat or cold significantly affects egg-laying. Maintaining 18°C–24°C (64°F–75°F) ensures hen comfort and consistent productivity. Our insulation panels and automated climate units regulate interior conditions year-round.
Layer Cage Systems that Support High Yield
The design of the layer battery cage system directly affects egg collection, waste removal, and feed efficiency. Livi’s A-type and H-type layer cage systems are built with anti-corrosion materials, optimized space allocation, and support full automation—including automatic manure removal and egg collection lines.
