Effect of stocking density on deep body temperature in broilers - Michael Czarick

Stocking density plays a major role keeping birds on deep litter to keep them comfortable & to develop 5-8 behavioral changes (comparing normal vs compromised space) whether it is broiler or broiler breeders in the house.

What is the correct stocking density to avoid heat stress? I have a 100ft by 20ft Broiler house

I think in open house 1 sq feet per bird in environment control house .85 sq feet per bird. Actual space depends on target body wt. Regards

l think the stocking density has to vary with regard to the body weight, age and weather changes. Cheers.

There is no such thing "as one size fits all" as far as stocking density in broilers in deep litter is concerned. It varies from one climatic zone to another. It also varies according to the age, weight and sex of the bird.
