    The best methods to insulate a poultry house include using aluminium foil or foam sheets under the roof, adopting a double roofing system with an air gap, building walls with hollow blocks or insulated panels, painting walls white to reflect heat, and planting shade trees around the house to reduce temperature.

    Yes, because birds consume more feed with pellets and crumbles than with mash feed

    I may have a different experience, as Layers performance did not get better with pellets

    But Broilers perform better with Pellets rather than mash

    October 15, 2025 at 6:13 pm in reply to: loose dropping and heat

    Loose droppings occur during heat stress because birds drink more water to cool down, which increases the volume of urine, and because the heat damages the intestinal lining, which impairs water absorption from the feces. Both increased fluid intake and reduced reabsorption lead to watery and loose droppings.
