Buyers in the EU direction and premium export programs increasingly need "cage free" or "enriched colony" housing — and they still need 90%+ collection rates, dry litter and one-person labor per house. Our multi-tier welfare system is built for exactly that tension: an open-front, doorless colony where hens walk, perch, dust-bathe and lay in curtains, while feeding chains, egg belts and manure belts run automatically under the surface of the bird behavior.

Every tier carries the enrichment set as standard: perch lines, a litter/dust-bath zone, and enclosed nest boxes with soft flooring, curtains and the automatic opening rhythm that gets hens laying where you can collect their eggs.

Key Features

All four welfare functions, one frame

Perching levels, litter and dust-bath area, nest boxes and open walking space are integrated on each tier — the four-point enrichment checklist satisfied without separate barns or clip-on kits.

Nests that attract hens

Soft-pad nest bottoms, dark curtains with timed opening, and gentle egg take-away belts — nest attractiveness is what keeps floor eggs off your grading belt.

Chain feeding with tier transfer

Upper-to-lower chain feeders deliver feed at every level so dominants cannot fence off the trough — uniform body weights, uniform lay.

Colony, not battery

Doorless open frontage with colony-level grouping lets hens choose levels and socialize normally, while auto egg and manure belts keep the labor bill of a battery house.

Where This System Wins Contracts

If your buyer requires cage-free certification — EU enriched-colony direction, a retail brand program, or an Gulf/Middle-East premium shelf — the aviary is the entry ticket, and the multi-tier design is what makes it economically survivable at 9–12 birds/m² of usable area rather than barn-level floor economics. We have shipped aviary projects into integrator programs that hold certification audits with the system's litter-management and nest-cleaning routines written into the SOPs we supply.

Designing Your Welfare House

Aviary layout is stricter than battery layout — height, light distribution and litter-zone ventilation are load-bearing decisions. Send house dimensions and the certification target and our engineers return tier levels, nest-box counts per hundred hens, perch meters per bird, and the controller program. Frames are hot-dip galvanized to the same 20-year spec as our battery line; belts, nest pads and curtains are stocked spares on the same account.

Does this satisfy EU-style enriched colony requirements?
It is engineered to the enriched-colony feature set — perch meters, litter area, nest-box geometry — and we design to your auditor's checklist; send the scheme and we dimension the house against it.
Is labor really comparable to battery cages?
Yes for collection and manure — both are automatic. The added routines are litter-zone and nest management, which is a daily half-hour per house, not a crew.
What information do I need to provide to get a quotation?
Three things: your poultry house dimensions (length, width, height — or just your land size and we suggest house dimensions), the number of birds you want to raise, and whether they are layers or broilers. With that our engineers return a cage layout drawing, equipment list and FOB price.
Are you a factory or a trading company?
We are the manufacturer — Hebei Zeus Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., with roll-forming, welding and hot-dip galvanizing lines in Cangzhou, Hebei. Video factory tours are available on request, any working day.
