Temperature set points consisted of 34°C from placement to 4 d, 32°C from 5 to 9 d, 29°C from 10 to 14 d, 28°C from 15 to 19 d, 27°C from 20 to 24 d, 26°C from 25 to 29 d, 24°C from 30 to 34 d, 22°C from 35 to 39 d, 21°C from 40 to 43 d, and 19°C from 44 to 47 d; 16.5°C from 48 to 51 d; 15.5°C from 52 to 55 d; and 14°C from 56 to 60 d. Actual temperatures during 36 to 60 d from experiment 1 were as follows: 25.7°C ± 1.2 from 35 to 39 d; 22.6°C ± 2.5 from 40 to 43 d; 24.3°C ± 1.6 from 44 to 47 d; 20.5°C ± 1.7 from 48 to 51 d; 20.70° ± 1.5 from 52 to 55 d; and 20.6°C ± 1.4 from 56 to 60 d. Actual temperatures during 36 to 60 d from experiment 2 were as follows: 17.4°C ± 1.2 from 48 to 51 d; 17.5°C ± 2.1 from 52 to 55 d; and 14.0°C ± 1.7 from 56 to 60 d.
14. Lighting schedule consisted of continuous lighting with an intensity of 20 lx from placement to 7 d, 19L:5D, and an intensity of 20 lx from 8 to 14 d, 20L:4D, with an intensity of 5 lx from 15 to 22 d, and continuous lighting with an intensity of 3 1x from 23 to 60 d.

Experiment 1: total feed cost/bird (sum of the starter, grower, WDI, and WD2 periods) for the 4 dietary regimens was as follows: HH = $ 1.001 ; HL = $0.985; ML = $0.976; and LL = $0,977; Experiment 2: total feed cost/bird (sum of the starter, grower, WDI, and WD2 periods) for the 4 dietary regimens was as follows: H = $1.175; M = $1.168; L = $1.160; and S = $1.167.
