Evaluation of the Impact of Light Source on Reproductive Parameters in Laying Hens Housed in Individual Cages

Higher light wavelengths have been shown to stimulate extra-retinal photoreceptors more efficiently than lower wavelengths to promote reproduction in poultry. We developed a light emitting diode (LED) bulb that emits 60% of its light in the red spectrum (LED-R), and evaluated the effects of differen...
