What are the standard sizes of chicken cages available in the market?

Different suppliers may have different specifications for a standard chicken cage. For starter farms, standard cage sizes are around 2-3 square feet per chicken and larger commercial cages can hold dozens to hundreds of chickens and can be several cubic meters. The cages vary in height too, but the chickens should be able to freely move and stretch their bodies.
In case extra nesting space is required, additional nesting boxes can be fitted. More vents or fans can also be added to improve ventilation. You can also alter the spacing between the bars for bigger chickens. Generally, more places to sit are welcomed, so perches and platforms can be added for the chickens to rest.

User evaluation of the product

Luna

My chicken cage is basic, but it serves its purpose. The cage gives my chickens a nice and safe home. It is constructed of wire mesh which enables sufficient airflow. The door easily opens and closes for feeding and cleaning. An improvement that I would add would be extra perches for the chickens to rest on.
