Range and confinement rearing of four genetic lines of turkeys. 2. Effects on behavior and tonic immobility.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of range and confinement rearing on behavior and tonic immobility of four genetic lines of turkeys. Lines of turkeys utilized were selected for increased body weight, or increased shank diameter, or were randombred control lines developed in 1966 and 1986.
