Chicken Farming Solutions in Kenya – Smarter, Stronger, More Profitable with Livi Machinery

Kenya’s poultry industry has seen rapid growth over the past decade, driven by increasing demand for eggs and meat in both urban and rural areas. As more farmers look to scale up operations, traditional free-range or small-scale methods are no longer enough to meet market standards. That’s where modern chicken farming solutions come in — and Livi Machinery is leading the charge in bringing smart, efficient, and durable poultry equipment directly to Kenyan farms.

Established in 2012 and based in Zhengzhou, China, Livi Machinery specializes in designing full-cycle poultry farming systems tailored to different climates, farm sizes, and production goals. We’ve worked with clients across Africa, including many successful projects in Kenya, helping farmers transition from manual setups to automated, high-output operations. Our products cover every stage of poultry management: from chick incubation to layer housing, broiler rearing, egg collection, feeding, watering, and waste removal.

But we don’t just deliver equipment — we deliver results. Whether you’re planning a new farm or upgrading an existing one, Livi offers turnkey support from initial design and site assessment to installation guidance and after-sales service. With our Kenya-focused team and local partners, we ensure timely delivery and responsive assistance when needed most. Let’s dive into how smart farming technology can revolutionize your poultry business in Kenya.

Why Modern Chicken Farming Equipment Is Essential in Kenya

Smallholder farmers still make up a large portion of Kenya’s poultry sector, but rising costs of labor, feed, and disease outbreaks like Newcastle are pushing many toward more controlled, intensive systems. This is where cage-based farming with automated features makes a real difference.

Take egg production, for example. A farmer using deep litter may get around 280–300 eggs per 100 hens annually due to stress, predators, or poor hygiene. But with well-designed layer cages — such as Livi’s galvanized wire battery cages — that number jumps closer to 320+ eggs per 100 hens. The secret? Reduced stress, better air circulation, targeted feeding, and automatic manure removal that keeps birds healthier and cleaner.

Our popular N-4 type four-tier layer cage system has been successfully installed across Nakuru, Eldoret, and even Nairobi outskirts. It saves space while allowing easy access for egg collection and cleaning. With slope-bottom mesh design, eggs roll gently into collection trays, minimizing breakage. Add in nipple drinkers and chain feeding lines, and suddenly, one worker can manage thousands of birds without breaking a sweat.

Then there’s broiler farming. With fast turnover cycles (5–6 weeks), efficiency is everything. Our meat chicken cage systems allow vertical stacking, making optimal use of barn area. Each tier comes with anti-scratch flooring to prevent breast blisters and maximize weight gain. Plus, they’re built with hot-dipped galvanized steel — essential for resisting corrosion in humid environments common in western Kenya and coastal regions.

And let’s not forget day-old chicks. Poor hatching rates can wreck profitability before the flock even hits the ground. Our digital incubators support capacities from 72 to over 19,000 eggs per batch, featuring precise temperature and humidity control, automatic egg turning, and alarm alerts. Farmers who used these units reported hatch success rates above 90%, even during power fluctuations, thanks to backup heating options and stable insulation.

Beyond Equipment – Livi’s Full Support for Kenyan Farmers

We understand that buying machinery online isn’t always simple — especially when you’re investing thousands of dollars and relying on it for your livelihood. That’s why at Livi, we go beyond the product catalog. From day one, our team works closely with you to assess your needs.

Are you building a new facility? We’ll help design the layout based on your available land, climate conditions, bird capacity, and budget. Need help choosing between flat decks or A-frame cages? Want solar-powered fans or grid-connected automation? We guide you through each decision with clear advice and real-world examples from similar farms in Kenya.

Once the order is placed, we handle logistics efficiently. Most shipments to Mombasa Port take just 25–35 days by sea freight, and we partner with trusted clearing agents to speed up customs processing. For urgent needs, air cargo options are available for critical components like controllers or spare parts.

Installation doesn’t have to be stressful either. While some experienced farm owners choose DIY setup with our detailed manuals and video tutorials, others prefer hands-on support. Although we don’t have a permanent office in Kenya yet, we deploy trained technicians upon request — or coordinate remotely via WhatsApp, Zoom, or phone calls with step-by-step troubleshooting.

Maintenance matters too. All Livi machines are made with wear-resistant materials, but routine checks keep performance peak. We offer extended warranties, supply spare parts globally (including fast dispatch to Kenya), and train farm staff on basic maintenance so downtime stays low.

Plus, our customer stories speak volumes. One farmer in Kiambu increased his egg output by 40% within six months after switching to Livi’s automated layer system. A youth group in Kisumu started a community hatchery using our multi-stage incubator — now training others in poultry entrepreneurship. These aren’t isolated cases. They reflect what’s possible when reliable tech meets local ambition.

We specialize in scaling systems for beginner, mid-sized, and commercial farms alike.

Because we manufacture all equipment in-house, we can customize designs to fit unique requirements — whether it’s adjusting cage height for shorter workers, reinforcing structures for extreme winds, or integrating solar-powered ventilation units ideal for off-grid areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of chicken cages does Livi offer for Kenyan farms?

We provide layer hen cages, broiler (meat chicken) cages,育雏笼 (chick rearing cages), and breeder cages. All are customizable in size and tier configuration, perfect for both small family farms and large commercial setups in Kenya.

Are Livi’s machines suitable for Kenya’s weather conditions?

Absolutely. Our equipment uses hot-dip galvanized steel and UV-resistant coatings to withstand humidity, rain, and high temperatures commonly found in regions like Kisumu, Kakamega, and coastal areas.

Can I install the system myself?

Yes, most customers install the systems using our clear instruction manuals and support videos. For larger installations, we recommend hiring local welders or carpenters, while we guide the process remotely.

Do you ship directly to Kenya?

Yes, we ship container loads to Mombasa Port regularly. We also work with local freight forwarders and clearing agents to ensure smooth customs clearance and transport to your farm anywhere in Kenya.

Is technical support available after purchase?

Yes. We offer lifetime technical support via WhatsApp, email, or video call. We also provide spare parts quickly and can send a technician if needed.

How long does it take to receive my order?

Sea freight typically takes 25–35 days from production completion. Air freight is faster (7–10 days) but more costly — best for urgent spare parts or small incubators.

Can I customize the cage system for my existing house?
