2026-06-03

An H Type Layer Battery Cage System for 30,000 to 100,000 layers is a fully automated poultry farming solution designed for commercial egg production. It combines high-density layer cages, automatic feeding, nipple drinking, belt manure removal, automatic egg collection, ventilation, cooling pad, lighting and intelligent control systems into one complete poultry house layout.

For farmers who plan to raise 30,000, 50,000 or 100,000 laying hens, H type layer cages are more suitable than traditional floor systems or low-capacity cages because they save land, reduce labor, improve manure management and support future farm expansion. Livi Machinery provides customized poultry house design, cage quantity calculation and complete equipment solutions for medium and large layer farms. You can also view more automatic poultry farming equipment for different layer, broiler and pullet projects.

Why Is H Type Layer Cage Suitable for Large Layer Farms?

The main advantage of the H type layer cage is vertical space utilization. Compared with A type cages, H type cages can be installed in 3 tiers, 4 tiers, 5 tiers or 6 tiers according to the poultry house height and ventilation design. This makes the system especially suitable for commercial layer farms from 30,000 to 100,000 birds.

According to Livi Machinery product configuration, common H type layer cage specifications include 1200mm × 625mm × 480mm and 1800mm × 600mm × 430mm. Different models can hold 108, 144, 180, 192, 240 or 288 birds per set. The cage mesh is usually made of hot-dip galvanized steel, with good corrosion resistance and a typical service life of 15–20 years. These specifications are based on the uploaded Livi Machinery layer cage product catalogue.

The H type layer battery cage system also helps reduce feed waste through a V-shaped feed trough, while the sloped bottom mesh allows eggs to roll smoothly to the egg belt. With automatic feeding, drinking, manure cleaning and egg collection, the farmer can manage a large poultry farm with fewer workers and more stable daily operation.

Recommended Cage Configuration for 30,000 to 100,000 Layers

Farm Capacity	Recommended Cage Type	Birds per Set	Estimated Cage Sets	Automation Level
30,000 Layers	4-Tier H Type Layer Cage	192 birds/set	About 157 sets	Feeding, drinking, manure removal, egg collection
50,000 Layers	5-Tier H Type Layer Cage	240 birds/set	About 209 sets	Full automatic system with ventilation
80,000 Layers	5-Tier or 6-Tier H Type Layer Cage	240–288 birds/set	About 278–334 sets	Full automatic system with climate control
100,000 Layers	6-Tier H Type Layer Cage	288 birds/set	About 348 sets	Central egg collection and intelligent control

For a 30,000-layer farm, a 4-tier H type cage system is commonly used because it balances investment, house height and automation efficiency. For 50,000 to 100,000 layers, 5-tier or 6-tier H type cages are more suitable for increasing capacity per house and reducing land cost.

If your poultry house has already been built, Livi Machinery can adjust the cage layout according to your actual house length, width and height. If you are building a new farm, the team can provide a complete design from chicken house layout to equipment installation. For reference, you can check a real 100,000 layers poultry farm project with H type battery cage system.

Step by Step Guide to Build an H Type Layer Cage Farm

Step 1: Confirm Your Layer Farm Plan

Before choosing equipment, the farmer should confirm the country, chicken quantity, land area, poultry house size, project budget and target automation level. For a 30,000 to 100,000 layers project, these details directly affect cage model selection, ventilation design and total equipment cost.

Step 2: Choose the Suitable H Type Cage Model

For 30,000 layers, 4-tier H type cages are often enough. For 50,000 layers or above, 5-tier or 6-tier cages can make better use of house space. The final choice should consider house height, local climate, labor cost, electricity supply and future expansion plan.

Step 3: Design the Poultry House Layout

A professional poultry house layout should include cage rows, walking aisles, feed silo position, egg collection direction, manure belt outlet, fan quantity, cooling pad area, water room and control cabinet location. A good layout can reduce operation mistakes and improve daily management efficiency.

Step 4: Install Automatic Feeding and Drinking Systems

The automatic feeding system distributes feed evenly to each cage row, helping chickens maintain uniform production performance. The nipple drinking system provides clean water with pressure regulators and water lines, reducing water waste and keeping the poultry house dry.

Step 5: Configure Manure Removal and Egg Collection

The belt manure removal system cleans manure regularly from each tier, which helps reduce ammonia, improve air quality and create a cleaner house environment. The automatic egg collection system transports eggs from cage rows to the collection area, reducing manual handling and egg breakage.

Step 6: Add Ventilation and Environmental Control

For large layer farms, ventilation is not optional. Exhaust fans, cooling pads, air inlet windows, lighting and intelligent control cabinets are important for stable egg production. Proper environmental control helps maintain temperature, humidity and air quality, especially in hot regions of Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.

Step 7: Installation Training and After-sales Support

After production and shipment, Livi Machinery can provide installation guidance and operation training. Farmers can learn how to operate feeding, drinking, manure removal, egg collection and ventilation systems correctly. For large projects, good training helps reduce equipment failure and improve long-term return on investment.
