The effects of moulting and age on egg geometry were evaluated during three age groups in four varities of Aseel chicken. For this purpose, a total of 168 eggs from four varieties of Aseel hens (Mushki, Lakha, Mianwali and Peshawari), each having 3 age groups (young, 50-67 weeks; medium, 80 -97 weeks and old, 115-132 weeks) were collected during pre and post-moult phases. The data on egg geomet...

Infectious coryza is a respiratory disease of chicken primarily affecting upper respiratory tracts. Six outbreaks of infectious coryza were investigated from Andhra Pradesh. Three of them were in commercial chicken, two from native Aseel chicken and one from emu. Out of total 74 infra orbital sinus swabs tested, 27 (36.4%) gave isolates of Avibacterium paragallinarum. All the 27 isolates obtain...

The major contribution of backyard poultry consumption in improving per capita nutrients level is well documented. Further improvement would be possible by crossbreeding with the highly producing breeds like white with the locally used in backyard poultry which is low producer. Fertility and hatchability are important parameters that should be studied before finalizing the cross breeding progra...

Kuşlarda gözün en göze çarpan ve ilginç özelliği pecten oculi’dir.
