Effect of heat on production and physiological traits in broiler chickens

Effect of two ambient temperature 34.5 degrees C vs 30.8 degrees C on broiler chickens fattened up to 56 days of life was studied. No effect of higher ambient temperature on plasma thyroid hormone level was observed. Better feed conversion efficiency and higher weight gain in broilers reared at 34.5...

Summary:Effect of two ambient temperature 34.5 degrees C vs 30.8 degrees C on broiler chickens fattened up to 56 days of life was studied. No effect of higher ambient temperature on plasma thyroid hormone level was observed. Better feed conversion efficiency and higher weight gain in broilers reared at 34.5 degrees C than in those reared at 30.8 degrees C was stated
