Egg-Laying Cycle Characteristics of the Bobwhite (Colinus virginianus)
Poultry Science, 1973 Abstract Egg sequence length, egg production rate, time of oviposition, lag-time and rate of ovum growth were determined for the Bobwhite hen. Hen-housed egg production was 38.9% with an average sequence length of 4.6 eggs when measured over an eight-month production period. The peak period of oviposition was from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. (EST).
