  1. Bird Ovaries: Developing Ova inside Follicle

  2. Oogenesis Ovum (Gamete) Production (Meiosis Partially Completed at Birth)

  3. Follicle Maturation Primary Oocytes: 500 - 2000 Follicle Containing Egg (= Ovum) http://www.hiltonpond.org/images/VultureBlackOvum01.jpg

  4. Follicle Maturation Timeframe Passerines: 4-5 Days Ducks/Pigeons: 6-8 Days Penguins: 6-8 Days Enlargement Up to 1000X Initial Size Egg (Ovum) http://www.hiltonpond.org/images/VultureBlackOvum01.jpg

  5. Follicle Maturation: Yolk Contents of Ovum Materials • Nutrition (Proteins, Lipids) • Hormones (e.g., Testosterone) • Immune Factors (e.g., Carotenoids, • Immunoglobins) • Antioxidants (e.g., Carotenoids, • a Vitamin A precursor)

  6. Follicle Maturation: Yolk Anatomy of Ovum Vitelline Membrane Yellow Yolk (Day Deposition) White Yolk (Night Deposition) (Germ Spot) Central Latebra (contains clear Vitelline Fluid)

  7. Follicle Maturation: Yolk Content in Altricial versus Precocial Birds Altricial: Precocial: Fig. 14-14 in Gill 2007

  8. Follicle Maturation: Mature and Atretic Follicles Stigma of Maturing Follicle Atretic Follicles http://partnersah.vet.cornell.edu/avian-atlas/sites/agilestaging.library.cornell.edu.avian-atlas/files/avian_atlas_assets/3.4.08.2DSC00050%20x750.jpg

  12. Gynandromorphs

  13. Egg Development: Magnum (Albumin and Chalaza Deposition)

  14. Egg Development: Magnum (Albumin and Chalazae Deposition) Albumin Composition: Water (90%) Protein (10%) Function: Water Supply Shock Absorption Insulation “Egg Whites”

  32. Egg Laying • Many Birds (e.g., Passerines, Woodpeckers) Lay Eggs about • 24 Hours Apart • Some Birds Lay their Eggs Two Days Apart (Ostrich, Herons, • Doves, Owls, Hummingbirds, Swifts, Kingfishers, • Some Accipiters • Penguins Lay their Eggs Three to Six Days Apart • Kiwis lay their Eggs 14-30 Days Apart
