The Effects of Stocking Density and Thermal Conductivity on Ventilation Rate of Laying Hens

Abstract

The study was conducted in 68 poultry house, which had different construction and capacity in Konya. The planning types of 65 building were cage house and 3 building were slatted floor house. The stocking density of houses were 20 – 35 hen / m2 in majority of buildings. The thermal conductivity of poultry houses varied from 0.74 kcal / m2 oC h to 1.00 kcal / m2 oC h in most buildings. Maximum ventilation rate of laying hens reduced when stocking density increased in poultry houses. Ventilation rate of layers were 13.9 – 16.5 m3 / h in low stocking density while it changed between 8.0 m3 / h hen and 10.0 m3 / h hen in high stocking density. There was found a relation between ventilation rate of laying hens and thermal conductivity of buildings in summer. Ventilation rate of layers were decreased by lower thermal conductivity of buildings.
