Reproductive Performance of Pheasant Breeder Hens
Abstract INCREASED demand for pheasants for release and for the dressed bird trade has prompted investigations for more efficient methods of production. One area where more efficient methods could reduce costs is with the breeder hen. Pheasant breeder hens are generally held in large outdoor wire pens in an attempt to simulate natural habitat.

The effect of reproduction phase of breeder hens, poult hatch time, and fatty acid supplementation of the breeder hen diet on livability, growth characteristics, and yolk and liver fatty acid composition in posthatch poults [PDF]
In two experiments, posthatch (PH) performance and physiological traits were determined in poults hatching from breeder hen flocks in their 1st (1w) and 7th (7w) week of production.

Tungsten Supplementation of Breeder Hens
Abstract IN AN effort to obtain molybdenum deficient chicks, a reported molybdenum antagonist, sodium tungstate (Higgins et al., 1956a,b; Leach and Norris, 1957; and Konen, 1958) was added to a practical corn-soybean diet of breeder hens. It was felt that this method would yield chicks sufficiently depleted to be used satisfactorily for molybdenum ...

Development of a cannulation procedure for broiler breeder hens
A cannulation and serial bleeding procedure has been developed to monitor the peripheral patterns of hormones associated with reproduction for up to 10 d in broiler breeder hens. Hens were cannulated via the jugular vein and returned to individual cages.
