RTL Cage
RTL Cage for Sale
RTL Cage, literally meaning “Ready to Lay” cage, is a type of poultry cage system specifically designed for layer hens. It has higher requirements for comfort and automated egg collection, making it ideal for managing hens that are about to enter the laying period.
We recommend transferring the layer hens into RTL layer cages when they are between 90 and 115 days old. Ideally, the transfer should take place a few days before the hens start laying eggs, giving them enough time to adapt to the new cage environment. This allows the layers to adapt to the new environment in advance and recover quickly from the stress of relocation.
- Tiers: 3,4
- Space for one bird: 430 cm² to 470 cm²
- Age of birds: From 80 days old (0.9 kg) to harvest day
The Benefits of RTL Chicken Cage
improve egg production
This cage is designed with an inclined floor, which could make the egg roll gently into the collection tray. This design maximally reduces egg breakage, making collection easier and more efficient. This could collect eggs without disturbing the hens to ensure higher productivity.
Minimize Stress During Transfer
Transferring hens into the RTL cage at 90–115 days of age ensures a smoother adaptation process. By reducing environmental stress during this critical transition period, laying hens can reach peak performance faster and maintain consistent productivity.
Save Time and Labor
Equipped with an integrated egg collection system, the RTL cage reduces the need for manual egg gathering. This not only saves labor costs but also maintains a hygienic collection process, reducing contamination risks and enhancing farm efficiency.
enhance hygiene
This cage helps the chickens separate from manure and maximizes the distance between the chickens and the ground, thus reducing the risk of disease transmission. In addition, this design facilitates regular cleaning and disinfection.
The Parameter of RTL Cage
Our RTL cages are made of high-quality galvanized steel, ensuring durability and excellent rust resistance for long-term performance. The design fully takes space efficiency into account—maximizing capacity without compromising the comfort of the hens, while providing ample room for movement and egg-laying.
Choosing our RTL chicken cage is a reliable and efficient solution. It helps increase your production output while simplifying daily operations.
