Jinlong AA-2 / AA-3 Bird Feeder & Drinker Cup — Space-Saving Dual-Function Design for Bird Farms
Product Overview: Jinlong AA-2 / AA-3 Bird Feeder & Drinker Cup
The Jinlong AA-2 and AA-3 bird feeder and drinker cups are purpose-built accessories for professional bird farms, aviaries, and poultry breeding operations. Designed with a compact, space-saving profile, both models attach directly to cage wire systems and serve the dual function of holding feed and water — simplifying cage management while reducing the number of accessories required per bird unit.
The AA-2 model features a rectangular form factor measuring 12.5 × 9.5 × 6 cm, offering a larger capacity footprint suited to medium and larger birds. The AA-3 is a square-profile compact cup at 8.3 × 8.3 × 6 cm, delivering an even higher packing density of 500 sets per 0.06 m³ — making it the preferred choice for buyers optimising container shipping costs. Both models maintain an identical 6 cm depth for consistent feed and water holding capacity.
Manufactured from 100% virgin HDPE at Jinlong's production facility in Yancheng, Jiangsu, China, the AA-2 and AA-3 cups are free from recycled fillers, offering consistent colour, strength, and chemical resistance throughout their service life. Custom colour orders are accepted, allowing bird farm operators and distributors to align product colour with branding or cage identification systems.
7 Core Features of the Jinlong AA-2 / AA-3 Bird Feeder Cup
1. Dual Function: Feed & Water in One Cup
Both the AA-2 and AA-3 are engineered to function as either a feed hopper or a water drinker cup. This dual-function capability eliminates the need to stock and manage two separate accessory types per cage, reducing procurement complexity and cage hardware costs for bird farm operators.
2. Space-Saving Compact Design
The SAVE SPACE design principle is central to both models. The AA-2's rectangular profile and AA-3's square compact form are optimised to fit within the cage wire spacing used in standard bird farm enclosures without reducing bird movement space or creating interference with cage mechanisms. Clean, flush cup walls prevent fouling and make cleaning easy.
3. 100% Virgin HDPE — Superior Material Quality
No recycled content. Every AA-2 and AA-3 cup is produced from 100% new virgin HDPE resin, ensuring uniform wall thickness, consistent impact resistance, and reliable colour stability. Virgin HDPE also resists the chemical degradation from water additives, feed acids, and disinfectants used in professional bird farm maintenance routines.
4. Any Colour Available — Custom Order Friendly
Jinlong accepts AA-2 and AA-3 orders in any standard or custom colour. Bird farm operators can specify colours to differentiate feed cups from drinker cups across cage rows, support farm colour-coding systems, or match buyer brand identity. Standard colours include white, yellow, blue, red, and green — contact Jinlong for custom Pantone matching.
5. Ultra-High Packing Density — 500 Sets Per Carton
Both models are packed at 500 sets per carton, delivering exceptional import efficiency. The AA-3's compact 0.06 m³/500 sets packing volume makes it one of the most freight-efficient bird cup products available. Lower CBM per unit means lower per-unit shipping cost — an important competitive advantage for importers and distributors working on tight margins.
6. Durable Long-Life Construction
HDPE's inherent properties — UV stabilisation, chemical resistance, and impact toughness — ensure that AA-2 and AA-3 cups withstand the daily washing, disinfection, and handling cycles of commercial bird farm operations. The cups maintain structural integrity and colour vibrancy season after season, reducing replacement frequency and total cost of ownership.
7. Professional Bird Farm Engineering
The AA-2 and AA-3 are designed specifically for professional bird farm environments — not generic pet accessories. The cup geometry, wall angles, and attachment points are optimised for commercial cage wire systems. Whether the operation is a layer bird breeding farm, an aviary complex, or an export breeder facility, these cups integrate cleanly with professional cage infrastructure.

Application Scenarios
Professional Bird Farms: Commercial-scale bird breeding and layer operations using wire cage systems — AA-2 and AA-3 integrate directly with standard cage wire for clean, professional installation.
Aviary Complexes: Walk-in aviaries and breeder enclosures where space efficiency and easy cleaning are priorities. The compact cup profile maximises usable cage space.
Quail & Pigeon Farms: Smaller bird species benefit from the AA-3 compact square cup for proportionate feed and water portions. AA-2 suits quail and pigeon breeding cages requiring slightly larger capacity.
Pet Bird Retail Distributors: Distributors supplying pet shops, bird markets, and online retailers can leverage the high packing density (500 sets/carton) for efficient container consolidation.
Export & Wholesale Supply: The compact 0.06–0.1 m³ per 500-set packing makes AA-3 and AA-2 ideal for mixed-container export orders where every CBM counts.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can the AA-2 and AA-3 be used as both feeders and drinkers at the same time?: Yes. The design allows each cup to serve as either a feed holder or a water cup independently. Many farms use one colour for feed and another colour for water across the same cage row — Jinlong's any-colour option supports this system directly.
Q2: What is the difference between AA-2 and AA-3?: AA-2 is a rectangular cup (12.5×9.5×6 cm) with a larger footprint, suited to bigger birds and wider cage openings. AA-3 is a square cup (8.3×8.3×6 cm) with a smaller, more compact profile — better for smaller birds and tighter cage wire spacing. Both share the same 6 cm depth.
Q3: Are custom colours available, and what is the minimum order for a custom colour?: Yes, Jinlong accepts custom colour orders. Standard colours (white, yellow, blue, red, green) are available from stock. Custom Pantone-matched colours may require a minimum order quantity — contact the Jinlong sales team for specific MOQ details.
Q4: How do the AA-2 and AA-3 attach to cage wire?: Both cups are designed for clip-on attachment to standard rectangular wire cage systems. The cup wall profile is engineered to sit flush against the cage wire without requiring additional hardware. Please confirm cage wire gauge compatibility with Jinlong before ordering if using non-standard cage systems.
Q5: What is the packing arrangement for container shipment?: AA-2 packs at 500 sets per 0.1 m³. AA-3 packs at 500 sets per 0.06 m³. For a standard 20-foot container (approximately 28 m³ usable), you can fit approximately 280 cartons of AA-2 or 466 cartons of AA-3 — both models offer excellent container fill efficiency.
Q6: Are the cups dishwasher-safe or compatible with farm disinfection chemicals?: Yes. HDPE is chemically resistant to the dilute bleach solutions, quaternary ammonium compounds, and acidic disinfectants commonly used in bird farm sanitation. Standard machine washing is also fully compatible. Avoid prolonged exposure to concentrated solvents or temperatures above 80°C.
