Effect of Heat Stress on Laying and Non-Laying Hens
Abstract INTRODUCTION A REVIEW of the literature indicates that comparisons between laying and non-laying hens under heat stress conditions are very limited. Huston et al. (1957) indicated that at high environmental temperature 32.2°C. (90°F.), nonlayers had 0.4°C. (0.7°F.) higher body temperature than layers, which was highly significant.

Dietary Sodium for Laying Hens
Dietary sodium requirements of laying hens in open type and evaporatively cooled housing were determined to be 0.126 and 0.145% of the diet, respectively. The lowest level of 0.04% sodium supported average rates of production of 49.1 and 60.3% in the two houses for the 28 weeks of the study.
