Abstract

In an attempt to increase weight gain of egg-type pullets reared under high summer temperatures, pullets were fed feed in either pellet or mash form. Under high temperature rearing conditions, pelleting the diet did not significantly increase 12 to 20-wk body weight gain when compared to effects of the diet fed in mash form. Under a moderate temperature regimen (21 C), pelleting the diet did significantly increase 12 to 20-wk body weight gain in contrast to the effects of the diet fed in mash form.
