Large White turkey breeder hens were exposed to either incandescent or full-spectrum (FS) fluorescent lighting during two 20-week reproductive cycles in closed confinement. Data were recorded for body weights, feed intake, and reproductive traits. Body weights and feed intake were similar between treatments in both egg laying cycles. In addition, there were no significant differences in egg production, fertility, hatchability, or poult weight between the incandescent and FS fluorescent light treatment in either the first or second year egg laying cycle. It was concluded that exposure of breeder turkey hens to FS fluorescent light in closed confinement results in reproductive performance similar to that obtained with incandescent lighting.
在封闭环境中，大型白色火鸡种母鸡在两个20周的繁殖周期内分别接受白炽灯或全光谱（FS）荧光灯照明。记录体重、采食量和繁殖性状的数据。两个产蛋周期中，各处理间的体重和采食量相似。此外，在第一个或第二个产蛋周期中，白炽灯和FS荧光灯处理之间的产蛋量、受精率、孵化率或雏禽体重均无显著差异。得出的结论是，在封闭环境中，种火鸡母鸡接受FS荧光灯照明的繁殖性能与白炽灯照明相似。
