Light color during brooding and rearing may impact broiler production; however, literature results are inconsistent. To address this, the effects of 3 wavelength spectra on broiler performance in 2 sex and 2 genotypes (Ross YPMx708 and EPMx708) were studied. Broilers were raised (d 0-35) under wavelength programs provided by LED light bulbs (blue (455 nm), green (510 nm) or white) under similar intensities...
