Feeding pea to modulate post-prandial metabolic response: impact on welfare, health and performance of feed restricted broiler breeders
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of feeding a pea or wheat-based diet on post-prandial metabolic status, production, health and welfare of feed restricted broiler breeders.

Characteristics of artificially ejaculated and ductus deferens semen in the guinea-fowl
TL;DR: The results suggest that a fluid containing aldose may be added in small amounts to the ductus deferens semen during natural ejaculation.

David A. Roland,Hardy M. Edwards +1 more
TL;DR: To relate essential fatty acid (EFA) deficiency to changes in the reproductive system of domestic fowl 1-day-old male chicks were fed either a practical diet (regular corn-soy diet) a basal diet or a control diet (the EFA-deficient diet + 5% corn oil).

A Method of Obtaining Spermatozoa from the Domestic Fowl
W. H. Burrows,J. P. Quinn +1 more
TL;DR: The method presented in this paper consists of a manual elicitation of an ejaculatory response which is undoubtedly reflex in nature and can be obtained in a short period of time.

Selective Fertilization in Fowls
TL;DR: An attempt was made to find out whether there was any selective preference in the union of sperm and egg cells in poultry, and it was found that self-fertilization was more effective or easier to make than cross fertilization.

The Influence of Certain Feeds Upon the Production of Spermatozoa by the Domestic Chicken
TL;DR: Experimental studies pertaining to the factors which may influence fertility in poultry have been limited to hatchability thus far, and for obvious reasons such studies have been confined to the female.

A study of the spermatozoon of the fowl, with particular reference to osmiophilic bodies in the sperm head
F. B. Adamstone,L. E. Card +1 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to learn something of the nature of the bead‐like bodies which occur in the head of the sperm of the fowl since it was found in a previous study that they are apparently affected in a characteristic manner by vitamin E deficiency.
