Abstract

The paper deals with the differences in daily gains in capon fattening of Ross-308 hybrid line. The capons were raised in groups A (autumn – winter period) and B (spring – summer period). In both groups the influence of air temperature (oC) and relative air humidity (%) on capons daily gains was recorded. In group B, as well as in group A, significant drop in daily gains was evidented when capons were fed with ground corn. A bigger drop of daily gains in group B is a result of high daily air temperatures and two weeks shortage of fattening time.
