The Secretory Phenomena in the Oviduct of the Fowl, Including the Process of Shell Formation Examined by the Microincineration Technique
TL;DR: The present studies were commenced primarily to investigate the cytological phenomena in glandular tissues in which the secretion consists mainly of inorganic salts in solution, and the more important phases of the glandular activity in the infundibulum, albumen region, andThe isthmus have been reinvestigated.

Influence of Ovulation Rate on the Tendency of the Fowl to Produce Eggs in Clutches
H. M. Scott,D. C. Warren +1 more
TL;DR: Hens tend to have a characteristic length of interval, but among individual birds the interval may vary from 24 to 30 hours, thus causing successive eggs to be laid at a later hour each day until the clutch is terminated.
