Ability of non-linear mixed models to predict growth in laying hens

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2014
In this study, the Von Bertalanffy, Richards, Gompertz, Brody, and Logistics non-linear mixed regression models were compared for their ability to estimate the growth curve in commercial laying hens. Data were obtained from 100 Lohmann LSL layers.
