Thesis Title
Some characteristics of brain electrical activity in the domestic chicken

Read article at Massey Research Online:

Miss McIlhone investigated some characteristics of brain electrical activity in chickens. The studies revealed information on the onset of consciousness in incubating and hatching chicks, the effects of anaesthesia on the chicken鈥檚 brain activity, the ability to record responses to pain in anaesthetised chickens and the effects of certain euthanasia methods. The results provide information relevant to the welfare of chickens and highlight differences between bird and mammalian brain activity that should be explored in future studies.
