Abstract
Experiments were conducted to investigate the effects on growth, feed conversion and mortality of broilers under white incandescent lamps and fluorescent light sources which emitted predominantly radiant energy representing the blue, green, yellow and red portions of the light spectrum.Based on four trials 9 week old broilers under either the blue or green fluorescent light were the heaviest and the lightest were those under the red light. The white incandescent and yellow fluorescent groups were in between the two extremes in regards to weight.Neither feed conversion nor mortality were influenced by light treatment.
