Key Features

1) Hygienic Manure Tray

The manure tray is deep to collect droppings below the cage. The tray slides in and out with ease to make washing and cleaning easy. Prevent disease by having a system that removes harmful substances, like bacteria, from your chicken's living space.

2) Smart Feeder

Shock-proof, red grills lay on top of removable feeding troughs to reduce feed loss inside and outside the cage. The removable feeding trough holds 6.5 pounds of feed. Customers claim to save 30% more of their feed with the flexible, shock-proof grills.

3) Egg Rollers

The tilted, elliptical flooring delivers uncracked eggs to the roll-out trays below. Removing the eggs from the living space ensures clean, manure-free eggs every time! Never worry about disturbing your girls to remove eggs! We all know how that can be.

4) Automatic Drinker

Layer boasts a seamlessly clean drinking system. A silicone hose can deliver water to 3 steel nipple drinkers. Drinker cups are attached below the nipple drinkers to prevent bird wetting and to keep the manure dry. The seamless watering nipple system promotes the highest level of hygiene.

It does not include a water tank!

5) Elliptical Flooring

Flexible flooring makes standing, walking, spawning, and mating more comfortable. This results in higher egg production rates and fewer foot problems. ComfortplastTM elliptical flooring is used instead of galvanized wire to create a rust-proof, safe, comfortable, and hygienic environment for your chickens.
