Good afternoon, I'm very intrigued by your research however I have a few questions that beg to be asked. Were all quail light restricted from the first three days until photostimulation? What lighting program was used? How did you photostimulate the birds? What is your peak photoperiod? How much did the birds differ in weight in the groups? Do you think that larger hens could be photostimulated earlier with the same success? I look forward to discussing this with you further, Regards, Bob Carlson poultryman120@gmail.com
