Prenatal stress in birds

open access: yesNeuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 2011
Although most work on prenatal stress has been conducted on mammalian species, birds provide useful alternative models since avian embryos develop outside the mother's body in a concealed environment, the egg, which is produced during a short time window of 4-14 days.
