In floor-reared and welfare houses, the difference between a profitable egg floor and a wet, dirty one is nest attractiveness. Our automatic nest box units — double-sided 2300×2200×2240 mm (24 nests) and single-sided 2300×1100×2240 mm (12 nests) — serve 420 and 210 hens respectively, giving each nest the dark curtain, the sloped soft pad and the gentle take-away that hens and labor economics both demand.

Eggs roll off the pad onto a 250 m/min conveyor (1.5 kW) that carries them out of the bird zone within seconds — before a curious hen can peck, before a dropping can land, and before the egg acquires the floor litter that grades it out at the packing station.

Key Features

Timed curtain routine

The dark access curtains give nests the privacy hens seek; opening rhythm trains the flock to lay in the boxes rather than the corners — floor-egg rates are behavioral, and behavior is designed for.

250 m/min take-away belt

A fast, gentle conveyor clears eggs to the pit or room exit, cutting double-clutch pecking and keeping the box cycle clean for the next hen.

Pad options for every market

PVC or wooden laying pads, both sloped for roll-away; PVC washes down fast in hot climates, timber reads warmer on inspection audits.

Modular across the house

Units repeat along a wall or island; feed and water run at the ends, birds find nests in shade, and the layout drawing sequences every unit.

Where Nest Boxes Pay

Floor-egg losses in unmanaged floor houses run 3–8% of production; graded-out eggs sell at a fraction of clean-egg price, so nest-box investment typically returns within one flock cycle on loss reduction alone. The second return is labor — belt collection replaces the nest-checking round, and the house records a stable clean-egg percentage that buyers of hatching eggs (breeder floor operations) will pay a premium to verify.

Ordering

Send flock size and house sketch; we calculate unit count (210 or 420 hens per unit), belt routing to your egg room and the controller program. Units ship galvanized with pads, curtains, belts and drive; assembly videos and drawings included, engineer dispatch optional. The nest line is the standard companion to our floor-rearing and aviary systems and shares the egg-room equipment list with our elevator collection machines.

How many nest boxes per 1,000 hens?
As a working figure: 10 double-sided (24-nest) units cover roughly 1,000 floor layers at 210 hens per unit-pair basis — we confirm the exact count in your layout drawing.
Can breeders use these for hatching eggs?
Yes — floor-breeder programs use nest-box belts precisely because clean, quickly-removed eggs hatch better; tell us if eggs go to the incubator and we specify belt speed and drop heights accordingly.
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?
