Perspectives on the endocrinology of poultry growth and metabolism

Abstract Birds have rapid pre- and post-hatching growth rates. The major hormones required to support normal growth are growth hormone (GH), triiodothyronine (T3 ) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). Optimal growth requires a “set-point” concentration of both IGF-I and T3 in the circulation. P...
