abstract = {There are so many stressors, like heat, effects the egg production
in laying hens. Experiment was conducted in a poultry farm in Bursa. 1730 Hy-Line
W77 layer aged 40 weeks assigned to caging unit were used as research materials.
Hens were divided into six groups and had different amount of ascorbate supplementation;
0, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mg kg-1 feed. Egg production and body
weighted were recorded. As result the best ascorbate supplementation to decrease
heat stress for this experiment was 100 mg kg-1 feed.}
