In addition, there is little
knowledge about how these LED bulbs from different
manufacturers compare with each other on blood physiological
variables of broilers grown to heavy weights. We
hypothesized that broilers grown to heavy weights under
different color temperatures (Kelvin) of LED bulbs
that have different output spectra may have different
blood physiological responses as compared to standard
ICD light bulbs. Therefore, the current study investigated
the effects of different color temperature (Kelvin)
of LED light bulbs on blood physiological variables of
broilers grown to heavy weights as part of our investigation
of the effects of LED light on broilers grown to
heavy weights reported in our previous manuscript from
the same individuals birds, treatments, and conditions
(Olanrewaju et al., 2015).
