Abstract :This research was conducted the commercial cage house in Konya province. Lohman white hens reared in cage house was found 20140 number layers. The building thermal conductivity was colculated as average 0.83 kcal/m.2°C h, and housed bird density was 21 bird/m2. In this study dry bulb temperature and moisture of inside air of cage house and outside air were measured by thermohyrogographs in January, February and March. The results obtained measurements were evaluated by heat-mousture balance and were defined as fabric heat loss and actually ventilation rate. Average inside temperature was 16.5 °C and average minimum and maximum temperature were observed 13.2°C and 19.1 °C in during the experiment. The inside relative humudity varied in 54-69%. The ventilation rate in house changed between 0.50-1.60 m³/h hen and its average was 1.11 m³/h hen.
