Özet
Bu çalışmada, kafeslerde grup halinde yetiştirilen 6-13 haftalık 471 adet erkek ve dişi Japon bıldırcını 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, ve 1:5 erkek-dişi oranlan kullanılarak erkek:dişi oranının döllülük, kuluçka randımanı, çıkım gücü, embriyo ölümleri, yem tüketimi, yemden yararlanma oranı, yumurta verimi ve yumurta ağırlığı üzerine etkileri incelenmiştir. Deneme gruplarında 6-13 haftalar arasında yumurta ağırlığı hariç, kuluçkalık yumurta oranı, döllülük, kuluçka randımanı, çıkım gücü, embriyo ölümleri, yumurta verimi, yem tüketimi ve yemden yararlanma oranı arasındaki farklılıklar istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunmuştur (p
