Abstract

The aim ofpresented study is assessment the impact of selected bioclimatological parameters (air temperature and relative humidity of the air) in three materials of huts for housing of calves (wooden hutch, tarpaulin hutch, plastic hutch). The dynamics of outside, inside temperature and relative humidity of the air were recorded in the living zone of calf in hourly intervals by digital data loggers during five macroclimatic periods (hot summer, moderate summer, transition period, moderate winter and frozen winter) for three years. Detected values were statistically assessed by methods of general linear model using the Statistica software. According the obtained data there were not proved die statistically significant differences in temperature-humidity climate between followed types of calf housing during the milk period. There were no significant differences in average daily body gain of calves rearing in monitored hutches.
