Housed Poultry - Feeding Factors

[bantamguy]

Im having a little trouble with a college assignment and i was wondering whether anyone can help me with a question, Thanks.

I just need to know what factors you would need to take into account when feeding housed poultry and if they were living outside.

Any advice provided would be really appreciated

Thanks,

Inside: Ventilation, photoperiod, feed and water placment & surface area, square foot per bird, canabalism, temprature, and humidity.

Out side: Shelter, feed and water avaliblity, parasites, disease, preditors, ect.

Parasites and disease are also important for indoors but usualy less prevailant.

Hope this helps a little.
