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).

The role of management decisions in subspecies hybridization across wild turkey occupied range
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.This study used DNA from hunter‐collected feathers across 29 U.S. states and Ontario to assess how past management actions, such as translocations and subspecies introductions, have shaped genetic admixture in wild turkeys. While admixture levels did not differ between historic and introduced ranges, they were influenced by management practices ...

Comparing nesting rate and space use between extant and translocated eastern wild turkeys
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.Female wild turkeys that are translocated to a site without conspecifics already present have increased range sizes and lower nesting rates when compared to extant or females translocated with conspecifics already present. This means that translocations should either translocate wild turkeys to areas where wild turkeys are already present or focus on ...
