Abstract
Supplementing an earlier paper, age determination criteria for bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) 28-150 days old are reviewed and simplified. Further information on the statistical reliability of the data is provided. Reference tables of other authors for the dating of reproductive events apparently require modification if accepted standards of accuracy are to be obtained for birds between 74 and 150 days of age.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
