Repeatabilities of feed and water consumption of growing chickens
Poultry Science
|August 1, 1980
Abstract:
Daily feed and water consumptions were obtained within 7-day periods for dwarf and normal males from lines selected for high and low juvenile body weight from 21 to 90 days of age. No significant differences were found among populations for the repeatabilities, and three measurements per week were sufficient to obtain an accurate estimate of feed and water consumption of growing chickens.
