Response of broiler breeder females to feed restriction below recommended levels. 3. Characterizing the onset of sexual maturity

The objective of this study was to characterize how the physical attributes associated with sexual maturity would be affected by feed allocation as female broiler breeders passed through the pullet-layer transition period.

description The objective of this study was to characterize how the physical attributes associated with sexual maturity would be affected by feed allocation as female broiler breeders passed through the pullet-layer transition period. Treatments consisted of five feeding programs, or body weight goals, during the period of 0 to 20 wk of age. Those were 8% above breeder standard, standard (primary breeder recommended body weights), and 8, 16, and 24% below standard. The characteristics measured included body and fat pad weights, pubic spread, comb development, head score (comb and wattle appearance), shank length, total plasma lipid concentration, ovary weight, oviduct weight, bursa of Fabricius weight, and age at sexual maturity. The generalized effect of increased severity of the feed restriction programs was to delay the birds' development without altering their ultimate physiological values. The exceptions to this were relative body weight and shank length after maturity, which were reduced in the most severely restricted birds. Measurements of pubic spread and comb growth and subjective scores of head appearance would be useful and easily obtained information when estimating the progression of a flock toward sexual maturity
