Four hundred Avian Farms male broiler chicks from 1 to 21 days of age, with average weight of 35 ± 0.15 g, were kept under high temperature environment, where the air temperature was maintained in 29.1oC, the relative humidity in 59.7 ± 3.16%, the black globe temperature in 28.9 ± 0.42oC and the black globe humidity index (BGHI) in 77.4 ± 0.59. A completely randomized design, with five treatments (1.04; 1.10; 1.16; 1.22 and 1.28% of total dietary lysine level), […]
