Influence of Water Deprivation on Water Consumption, Growth, and Carcass Characteristics of Ducks
Poultry Science, 1981 Two-week-old White Pekin ducks were granted access to water either 4, 6, 8, 16, or 24 hr per day for a period of 4 weeks. The effects of water deprivation on water consumption, growth parameters, and carcass traits were determined. Compared to all other treatments, ducks allowed access to water for 4 hr per day had significantly lower (P less than .05)
