Twelve Holstein male calves. 5 months old, were used for two treatments: A) normal environment and B) climatic chamber. Climatic chamber was put on daily form 1 to 5 p.m., with a temperature of 30°C. Roughage consumptions and weight gains were similar after 64 days of observations. Rectal temperatures were higher but not significantly and respiratory rate were signicantly higher in climatic chamber calves.
