On the nature of the gonadal hormones of the domestic fowl.

Studies on the effects of exogenous hormones have led to the accumulation of a considerable body of information on the reproductive physiology and endocrinology of birds, and of the female domestic fowl in particular. Exogenous estrogens have been shown to produce striking effects in immature pullet...
