Basic information

This poultry farm project is created by Luoto in West Africa to demonstrate how raising 100,000 birds in chicken cage can help poultry farming easy for the poultry farmers and help ease their labour. The cost of building a layer chicken house that can accommodate 100,000 birds depends on its design and material specifications. You have each of the design alternatives, the ground conditions and the availability of specific materials in the poultry area

Depending on the size of the building, this chicken farm is capable of small to large-scale egg production. There are two main types of poultry houses, an automated and the mechanically ventilated house, and a naturally ventilated house. The design you choose depends on many factors such as the weather and climate conditions in your region, the amount of budget (finances) you have for each of the design alternatives, the ground conditions and the availability of specific materials in the poultry area

If you need to improve productivity and increase efficiency on your farm, you will have to invest in technology such as chicken cage and other poultry equipment. An automated layer house has mechanically controlled systems such as chicken cage for feeding, drinking, egg collection and manure removal. The ventilation is also automated, adjusting and changing accordingly with the environmental temperature, wind pressure, humidity and lighting
