Temperature and Humidity

Everyone knows that internal BH temperature needs to control between 26 - 29 degree Celcius. Why?

Because if the internal temperature is below this range, the egg will be difficult to hatch and the swiftlets have to fly back more frequent to keep the egg warm, do you think the swiftlets will like this type of internal environment? The answer is definitely NOT.

If the internal temperature is higher than the range, it will be good for the egg, how about for swiftlets itself? Swiftlets do not like too hot in BH, that's why most of the fail BH temperature is higher than 31 degree Celsius most of the time.

This is to prove that swiftlets like WARM environment in the BH. So if sometimes the temperature hits 30++ degree Celcius, it is OK, don't worry.

As long as the temperature is fluctuating within 3 to 4 Degree Celcius, it is OK to the swiftlets.

This is only the basic explanation, but from this finding, I think my blog readers have better and further understanding about this area.

Will show the evidence/ photos to you in future.

Humidity to be continue.....
