The need of the birds in the Tropical regions differ than that of the birds in other parts of the world considering the climatic conditions and the fact that most of the developing nations placed in this region lack consistent and quality power supply.
This is the major reason; farmers in this region usually prefer conventional stair step cages than Automatic battery cages.
Identifying this scenario and the necessity of a solution that will combine both; the convenience of conventional cages and the advantages of automation, Polaris came out with a perfect design ‘Tropicana’ H type Polaris cages system addresses both these issues very effectively.
Conventional Cages : The major issue faced is difficulty in adopting automation due the design lapses; which lead to feed wastage, Egg breakages, Damage to cages, misalignment of cages, Litter handling etc.
Ordinary Battery Cages : Overcrowding, insufficient feeding space leading to non- uniform flocks, Wear and tear of cage bottoms, difficulty in replacing the cage components, Necessity to install Environment control system etc.
Polaris equipment H type cage system is composed of H type chicken cage, automatic feeding system, automatic manure cleaning system, automatic drinking water system, automatic egg collection system, ventilation system, etc. H-type egg-laying hen cages usually have 3 to 8 levels, and 5 to 6 egg-laying hens can be raised in one cage. The specific parameters and structure are shown in the following picture.
