Chicken House Plans For 100 Chickens Design
This plan is suitable for small poultry farming projects. It is designed for 100 chickens. It can be used for broilers or layers. The deep litter system is adopted. It offers low investment cost and easy management. According to common poultry farming density standards:
- Broilers: 8-10 birds/m²
- Layers (floor raising): 5-7 birds/m²
To accommodate both broilers and layers, a poultry house with a floor area of 40 m² is recommended.
