2. When purchasing the layer chicken cage, the farmer should pay attention to the design of the angle of the egg at the bottom of the cage. The angle of the egg should be accurate. If the angle is not suitable, the egg will not come out. Or the angle is too big and the eggs are struck by each other. The general suitable angle is around 7-8 degrees. The farmers should pay special attention when purchasing.

3. When purchasing the layer cage, pay attention to the connection between the egg cage and the bottom cage of the layer cage. The point of the connection should be fine, and there should not be too much clearance. If the gap is too large, it may cause the egg to fall, which will affect the efficiency of the chicken farm.
