|
{The lighting spectrum used in modern poultry production commonly lacks significant amounts of ultraviolet light; however, poultry can perceive the ultraviolet spectrum unlike humans and little research has been done to investigate the importance of this part of the spectrum on bird welfare. To determine if adding ultraviolet light to typical light emitting diode (LED) lighting affected production, stress, and behavior we reared laying hens from 18 to 72 weeks of age under either just a commonly used LED fixture (Control) or with the addition of ultraviolet light (UV). To determine stress bilateral asymmetry (ASYM
