Excerpt:
On my roof top, I have been rearing egg laying birds and as well as ducks of Chinese origin; Jinding for the last couple of years. From mid May, 2024 the day temperature increased to a level of 430C and the humidity was reduced to a level of 29%. The day and night temperature showed very little variation and thus, most of egg laying brown colored chicken stopped laying and some were found dead in the cage. However, white layers remained stout and continued laying eggs.
On the other hand, ducks who were exposed to sun throughout the day, showed thermal tolerance to acute heat stress. Jinding is a breed of ducks originated from south- east coast of China and has recently introduced in Bangladesh. Southeast China has a climate which is very humid, and subtropical, which is similar to the climate of Bangladesh. This year the winter was mild and the summer was hot and dry after 2 pm from mid-May. The most significant weather influences arise from the Bay of Bengal, the Himalayan Mountains in the north, and the major river systems.
