Investing in a high-capacity poultry cage system is a major step for any commercial layer farm. Choosing the right equipment and supplier can significantly affect your productivity, efficiency, and return on investment. This guide offers practical procurement advice for farm owners looking to purchase an A-Type layer chicken battery cage system for 50,000 laying hens from LIVI—a trusted manufacturer of poultry farming solutions.
Step 1: Understand Your Farm’s Requirements
Before reaching out to a supplier, it’s important to evaluate your specific farming needs. Consider the following:
- Farm Size & Layout: What are the dimensions of your poultry house?
- Level of Automation: Do you prefer a manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic poultry chicken cage system?
- Climate & Ventilation Needs: Will your farm operate in hot or humid conditions?
- Power Supply Stability: Can your location support automated systems?
Having clear answers to these questions will help LIVI tailor the right solution for your operation.
Step 2: Choose the Right System Configuration
LIVI offers various configurations of A-Type layer battery cages suitable for 50,000 birds, including:
- 3-Tier or 4-Tier Structures
- Manual Feeding & Egg Collection
- Semi-Automated Systems (with automatic feeders or manure belts)
- Fully Automated Systems (feeding, egg collection, manure removal)
Each system has its advantages. Manual systems are cost-effective for low-labor regions, while automated solutions significantly reduce daily workload and increase efficiency over time.
Step 3: Request a Customized Quotation
Once you define your basic needs, LIVI’s sales team will prepare a tailored quotation based on:
- Cage quantity and specifications
- Automation level
- Installation service (remote or on-site)
- Shipping destination
- Optional add-ons (spare parts, water pumps, egg collection belts, etc.)
The quotation includes full equipment details, packaging list, shipping cost estimates, and estimated production lead time.
Step 4: Review Technical Drawings and Layout
LIVI provides professional poultry house layout designs to help you visualize the cage placement before placing your order. These technical CAD drawings ensure optimal use of space and help avoid future modification costs.
If you’re building a new poultry house, this is a crucial step to align construction with layer raising equipment specs.
Step 5: Confirm Your Order and Make Payment
The standard purchasing procedure includes:
- Proforma Invoice (PI) Issued – Once you approve the configuration and pricing.
- 30% Deposit Payment – To initiate production.
- Production Period – Typically 15–25 working days.
- Balance Payment – Before shipment, after inspection.
- Shipping Arranged – Via sea or land freight, based on your region.
LIVI accepts international bank transfers and supports flexible payment methods for long-term clients.
Step 6: Prepare for Delivery & Installation
While waiting for delivery, LIVI will support you with:
- Construction guidance based on cage size

Upon arrival, you can choose self-installation or request on-site support by LIVI engineers.
