-- H-Type battery cages or A-Type battery Cages?
Answer: Under 30,000 birds? Choose A-Type. Over 50,000? Go H-Type. Here’s why.
The Dilemma
Many layer farmers struggle to choose between H-Type battery cages and A-Type battery Cages. Both offer automation (feeding, drinking, manure cleaning, egg collection, climate control), reduce labor, and cut costs—but suit different scales.
A-Type Cage System
Cages in A-frame tiers. Best for small/medium farms.
Pros:
- Superior ventilation on all tiers (works in open houses).
- Better natural light exposure.
Cons:
- Lower stocking density → more floor space needed.
- Upper-tier manure can fall on lower birds (hygiene risk).
H-Type Cage System
Vertically stacked cages. Ideal for large-scale operations.
Pros:
- Full automation → fewer workers, higher efficiency.
- Dedicated manure belts per tier → cleaner, healthier birds.
- High space efficiency → compact, scalable farming.
- Layered manure removal → easy collection, eco-friendly.
- Closed-system → disease prevention, better performance.
Cons:
- Requires sealed house + auto-climate control.
- Higher upfront cost + operational risk (10,000+ birds/house).
Which Should YOU Choose?
- <30,000 birds: A-Type battery cages (simpler, cost-effective).
- >50,000 birds: H-Type battery cages (higher ROI, efficiency).
Final tip: Match your choice to your flock size, budget, and long-term goals.
