Relationship Between Egg Weight and Hatch Weight in Pigeons (Columba livia)
This study was undertaken to assess the relationship between egg weight and hatch weight in pigeons and also derive prediction equation based on the relationship. It was conduced in nine randomly selected households in Misau town of Bauchi State, Nigeria, between April and November 2009. The mean egg weight and squab hatch weight were 14.46±0.11 g and 12.55±0.08 g, respectively. No significant ...
متن کاملOrthographic processing in pigeons (Columba livia).
Learning to read involves the acquisition of letter-sound relationships (i.e., decoding skills) and the ability to visually recognize words (i.e., orthographic knowledge). Although decoding skills are clearly human-unique, given they are seated in language, recent research and theory suggest that orthographic processing may derive from the exaptation or recycling of visual circuits that evolved...
متن کاملChange detection and change blindness in pigeons (Columba livia).
Change blindness is a phenomenon in which even obvious details in a visual scene change without being noticed. Although change blindness has been studied extensively in humans, we do not yet know if it is a phenomenon that also occurs in other animals. Thus, investigation of change blindness in a nonhuman species may prove to be valuable by beginning to provide some insight into its ultimate ca...
متن کاملEffects of in ovo feeding of carbohydrates on hatchability, body weight, and energy status in domestic pigeons (Columba livia).
The effects of in ovo feeding of carbohydrates on hatchability, BW, yolk sac weights (YSW), pectoral muscle weights (PMW), liver and pectoral muscle glycogen concentration, serum glucose level, and hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase activity of domestic pigeons, hatched from eggs laid by a 40-wk-old breeder flock, were investigated. At 14.5 of incubation, fertile eggs were injected with 200 μL of 1....
متن کاملVisually Elicited Head Rotation In Pigeons (Columba livia)
Horizontal rotational head movements were video-taped from pigeons standing freely in a rotating cylinder. The cylinder carried vertically striped patterns approximating a sinusoidally modulated horizontal intensity distribution. We altered systematically various stimulus parameters: spatial wavelength and contrast of the pattern, angular velocity of the pattern motion and mode of motion onset....
