Abstract excerpt

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of day length, sex, and genotype (Ross × Ross 308 and 708) on mortality causes, bird mobility, footpad health, and ocular size, with 4 trials within the experiment. Four graded day lengths were chosen to allow the study of relationship between day length and health parameters, including 14L:10D, 17L:7D, 20L:4D, and 23L:1D. The primary statistical tools used to...
