through nutrition or environmental manage
ment and genetics. How can we minimize
this kind of loss?
“Roughly, five percent of losses are due
to skeletal decline diseases. They’re almost
a way of life. We’d like to reduce that fact. ’’
Other studies include ways to reduce the
size of the yolk and the cholesterol in an egg,
the role of cholesterol in egg metabolism,
ways to reduce nitrogen and phosphorous
content of manure through feed manage
ment, and a host of others.
Month by month, birds arc moving into
the buildings set aside for them.
Following is a description of the facility
by building.
Fundamental Research
Building
This 8,700 square foot building, with a
capacity of 1,000 birds, includes a 12-foot
by 16-foot environmental chamber which
can also be closely controlled and moni
tored. This precision monitoring is a factor
when checking on certain genetic strains of
birds and their growth and health under cer
tain types of conditions.
