How Hot Can Chickens Tolerate
著者: 渡辺 美咲
Chickens are happiest between 65°F and 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Think of it as their ideal brunch weather. But as the temperature rises, things get weird.
Once it hits 85°F (29°C), they start panting like tired dogs. By 95°F (35°C), they’re practically begging for a popsicle (don’t give them one, though).
The Magic Number: 105°F (40°C)
Here’s the headline: 105°F is the danger zone. Above that, chickens can suffer heat stress, stop laying eggs, or even die. Yes, it’s that serious—but also absurdly preventable.
Interestingly, some breeds are tougher than others. Leghorns and Mediterranean breeds handle heat better, while fluffy Silkies are basically walking sweaters. Evolution, meet irony.
