Auditory experience and song development in the chaffinch fringilla coelebs

TL;DR: The available evidence suggests that the kind of song a male Chaffinch produces depends directly on its auditory-motor experience before deafening, and there is no indication that deafening achieves its effects on the resultant song by interfering with the hormonal substrate.

The Role of Auditory Feedback in the Vocal Behavior of the Domestic Fowl1

TL;DR: In this paper, a new deafening technique for day-old chicks of domestic fowl is described, and the results indicated that the forms of the calls studied here remained unchanged after deafening, although some change occurred in the detailed aspect of its crowing.
