Abstract
No decrease in efficiency of evaporative heat loss was indicated for 60 ppm ammobia-exposed hens compared to 10 ppm ammonia-exposed hens. Latent heat loss of the nirds increased with increasing. environmental temperature and the associated increasr in respiratory rate. Interestingly, changes in respiratory rate within a given temperature were not correlated with changes in evaporative heat loss.
