Corn for heat? Is it myth or no?

Interesting. It's a carb though. I also was told that mixing oats into their feed will.add the carbs for warmth before they roost..

Corn fed chickens do not have an increase in body temperature when consuming corn. Corn is a ‘hot’ food item, yes, but only in reference to calories, not heat. There is no rise in body temperature when poultry consume it
