“…In this study, the ovarian weight and ovary index were significantly higher in geese reared at 29 °C from 2 to 4 weeks of age. The reproductive performance of Japanese quails was decreased by lowered ovarian weight in high ambient temperature, which was aggravated by liver damage caused by high temperature [ 27 ]. Therefore, a suitable temperature is conducive to ovarian development.…”

In order to explore the brooding temperature on the absorption of yolk sac and the ovary development of goslings, 126 1-day-old female goslings were randomly divided into three groups with three replicates in each group. The brooding temperatures were set at 32 °C, 29 °C and 26 °C (represent G32, G29 and G26), respectively, in each group. At 48, 60 and 72 h, two goslings from each replicate were weighed, and the yolk sac was collected and weighed. The fatty acid composition of yolk sac fluid was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). At 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks of age, goslings from each replicate were weighed, the ovaries were weighed and fixed for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, Cell cycle checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1), fibroblast growth factor 12 (FGF12) and Sma-and Mad-related protein 4 (SMAD4) which related to regulation of ovarian development were determined by qRT-PCR. The body weight of G29 and G26 was significantly higher than that of G32 at 72 h (p < 0.05). The contents of C14:0, C16:0, C18:2n6c and total fatty acid (ΣTFA) from G32 were significantly higher than that of G26 (p < 0.05), and the contents of C18:1n9t and C22:0 in G29 were significantly higher than that of G26 (p < 0.05). The ovary index, ovary and body weight were significantly higher in G29 than those of G32 and G26 at 2 weeks of age (p < 0.05). The number of primordial follicles, number of primary follicles and diameter of primary follicles were significantly higher in G29 than those in G32 and G26 at 4 weeks of age (p < 0.05). In G29, the expression of CHK1 and SMAD4 was significantly higher than that in G32, and the expression of FGF12 and SMAD4 was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than that in G26 at 2 and 4 weeks of age. In conclusion, brooding temperature at 29 °C could promote the absorption of fatty acids in yolk sac, body weight gain, and ovarian development through up-regulating the expression of CHK1, FGF12 and SMAD4.

“…Bird breeders' reproductive abilities can also be affected by heat stress since it decreases the synthesis of follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and estradiol hormones. Consequently, this leads to low follicle dominance, poor egg quality, a low fertility rate, a lower hatchable rate, and a reduced number of live hatchlings [17].…”

A major environmental stressor for the poultry industry is heat stress, which results in substantial economic losses. Heat stress has recently garnered increasing public awareness and concern for its adverse effects on poultry welfare. Several physiological changes happen under heat stress, including oxidative stress, acid-base imbalance, and immunosuppression, leading to increased mortality and decreased feed efficiency, body weight, feed intake, and egg production. Reduced nutrient intake is a significant contributor to the reduction in growth performance in heat-stressed animals, perhaps because they consume less feed to reduce heat production. Hence, heat stress can be attenuated in poultry using several different strategies, each with varying degrees of effectiveness. Nanotechnology strategies have gained more attention and are found to reduce heat stress's detrimental effects. Nanotechnology focuses on creating materials with nano-sized particles that have improved physical, chemical, and biological properties. Also, nanotechnology can be used in poultry production to improve the ability of birds to absorb nutrients and, in turn, increase growth performance, nutrient digestion, and productivity. Therefore, this review provides scientific evidence regarding the adverse effects of high ambient temperatures on poultry health and performance and potential nanoparticle approaches to mitigate those detrimental effects and their challenges.

— Quail farming ranks 3rd at the national level for poultry production and has growth projections of 3.9% in the coming years. In Peru, due to the decreases in temperature and cold in the southern part of the country, it presents a significant problem to the development of quail farms, of which its primary derivative is the egg that provides food contributions to the population and only with the 18.1% cholesterol compared to the eggs of other birds. This study aims to develop an automatic farm system to increase the production in the laying stage of quails in the homes of Arequipa. The control system was developed with the Arduino Nano platform, DHT11, LM35 sensors, actuators such as a 25W bulb, a fan, and a humidifier, which allow continuous temperature and humidity control. In addition, all the variables can be visualized through an LCD screen. A simple 3D model was developed with a capacity of between 10 and 25 quails. In charge of the control processes, the Arduino module reached an error rate of 0.9% in the temperature variable, and the humidity variable does not present an error rate. The total power of the prototype was measured and converted into a monetary value. Average power of 0.02667 kW / hour was obtained, which is reflected in a saving of 82.22% compared to using a 100W bulb. Keywords— Poultry production, farm quail, quail egg, automation, Arduino.
