Effects of Heat Stress on the Laying Performance, Egg Quality, and Physiological Response of Laying Hens
As high temperature and relative humidity (RH) are the main environmental factors causing heat stress, the temperature–humidity index (THI) serves as an indicator of heat stress in livestock animals. This study aimed to determine the effects of heat stress on the laying performance, physiological re...
