“…On the other hand, there are the precocial species capable of maintaining their core temperature (Tc) stable in extremely cold environmental conditions such as those mentioned above [ 46 ], and although they experience a rapid drop in temperature after birth, this forces them to increment of their heat production up to 15 times to make up for the loss [ 1 , 9 , 47 ].…”

“…This shows how fundamental thermoregulation and thermogenesis are for the survival of the animals. Moreover, having sufficient energy reserves, mainly through the consumption of colostrum and milk, is an important source of thermogenesis fuel [ 1 , 9 , 10 ]. The main defense mechanisms against the cold in newborns include: (i) vasoconstriction with the objective to maintain heat in the core of the body and minimize heat loss [ 11 ]; (ii) non-shivering thermogenesis (NST), which involves the metabolism of brown adipose tissue (BAT); and (iii) shivering thermogenesis [ 1 ].…”

Hypothermia is one of the most common causes of mortality in neonates, and it could be developed after birth because the uterus temperature is more elevated than the extrauterine temperature. Neonates use diverse mechanisms to thermoregulate, such as shivering and non-shivering thermogenesis. These strategies can be more efficient in some species, but not in others, i.e., altricials, which have the greatest difficulty with achieving thermoneutrality. In addition, there are anatomical and neurological differences in mammals, which may present different distributions and amounts of brown fat. This article aims to discuss the neuromodulation mechanisms of thermoregulation and the importance of brown fat in the thermogenesis of newborn mammals, emphasizing the analysis of the biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that determine the distribution, amount, and efficiency of this energy resource in newborns of different species. It has been concluded that is vital to understand and minimize hypothermia causes in newborns, which is one of the main causes of mortality in neonates. This would be beneficial for both animals and producers.

“…Colostrum can be added to poultry ration as a feed additive due to its nutritious and performance-enhancing attributes (Zhang et al, 2016;Afzal et al, 2017;Del Puerto, Cabrera, & Saadoun, 2017). Colostrum containing the low amount of lactose compared to normal milk, and conversely other compounds such as fat, protein and ash, is higher in it (Szyndler-Nędza, Mucha, & Tyra, 2020;Reyes-Camacho et al, 2020;Gallo et al, 2020). Colostrum is rich in vitamins A (retinol), E (tocopherol) and C (which are considered antistress vitamins) and therefore their use in feeding broilers in conditions of thermal stress is likely to benefit the immune system, reducing casualties and improving growth (Y de Vries, Pundir, Mckenzie, Keijer, & Kussmann, 2018;Jrad, Oussaief, Khorchani, & El-Hatmi, 2020).…”

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of colostrum powder on performance, intestinal morphology, blood biochemical parameters and antioxidant status of broilers in heat stress. In this experiment 224 Ross-308 broiler chicks were used from 1 to 42 days in 5 treatments and 4 replicates (12 birds per replicate) in a completely randomized design. Treatments included: 1) control (without using colostrum), 2) 0.5% of colostrum, 3) 1% of colostrum, 4) 1.5% of colostrum, and 5) 2% of colostrum powder. Colostrum powder was added in first 10 days of broilers breeding period in their diets. Colostrum powder had significant effects on performance, carcass traits and intestinal cells morphology of broilers in heat stress (P < 0.05). In grower period the highest amounts of final body weight and body weight gain were obtained with 2% of colostrum powder. Colostrum powder in contrast to control improved the percentages of gizzard, liver, bursa of fabricious, thighs and breast (P > 0.05). The highest villies, the lowest crypts and the highest ratio of villies/crypts were obtained with colostrum powder adding (P > 0.05). Colostrum powder had no significant effects on blood biochemical parameters and antioxidant status of broilers. The overall resulted showed that in broilers in heat stress condition using colostrum powder up to 2% in starter period has beneficial effects on performance, carcass traits and intestinal morphology of broilers.
