Excerpt from The Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1943, Vol. 25 This study has been carried a little further and included other birds with abnormal sex behavior, but normal structure. That is, to complete the more female end of the series, we have studied several apparently normal hens that tread other hens. Of these, 1422 was sent from West Virginia by Professor Atwood as a pos sible hermaphrodite but has behaved normally 'in Maine. K134 and m4os were two such birds reared at the Station plant and finally killed to study their anatomy and histology. To complete the more male end Of the series we have studied two guinea-chicken hybrids, one raised on the Maine poultry plant and the other sent in for examination from the country. Their gonads appeared to be testes, but their behavior was indifferent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
