Residual feed consumption in laying hens. 2. Genetic variation and correlations.

Poultry science - 1 Aug 1991

Luiting P, Urff E M

Abstract excerpt

The study described here deals with the quantification of the genetic variation of "residual feed consumption" (RFC) of hens of a White Leghorn population during a 44-wk laying period (20 to 64 wk of age) in 11 time segments of 4 wk each, fed either a commercial or a low-energy diet (11.7 and 10.0 MJ ME/kg, respectively, where 1 MJ = .239 Mcal). The RFC is defined operationally as the difference between the...
