The effect of hen age on antibiotic resistance of Escherichia coli isolates from turkey poults

JOURNAL OF APPLIED POULTRY RESEARCH, 9(4), 487–495.

By: A. Fairchild n, J. Grimes n, M. Wineland n & F. Jones*

author keywords: antibiotics; Escherichia coli; hen age; microbial profile; poults
TL;DR: The data suggest that age of breeder flock and hatchery-related environmental differences might influence the effectiveness of antibiotics against avian E. coli isolates from turkey poults, which may be due to pronounced seasonal effects. (via Semantic Scholar)

Increased egg production in juvenile turkey hens after active immunization with vasoactive intestinal peptide

Poultry Science, 78(6), 899–901.

By: S. Caldwell*, A. Johnson*, T. Yule*, J. Grimes*, M. Ficken* & V. Christensen*

MeSH headings : Animal Husbandry; Animals; Eggs; Female; Fertility; Light; Turkeys / physiology; Vaccination / veterinary; Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide / administration & dosage
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that VIP immunization of turkey hens is potentially economically relevant and the first egg laying cycle was extended for an additional 7 wk without a significant decline in egg production. (via Semantic Scholar)

1999 journal article

Restriction of feed consumption and body weight in two strains of large white turkey breeder hens

POULTRY SCIENCE, 78(8), 1102–1109.

By: A. Crouch n, J. Grimes n, V. Christensen n & J. Garlich n

author keywords: turkey breeder hen; restrictive feeding; body weight; egg production
MeSH headings : Animal Feed; Animal Husbandry; Animals; Body Weight; Eating; Female; Fertility; Male; Turkeys / growth & development
TL;DR: It was concluded that early severe feed restriction of female line breeder hens might improve subsequent reproductive performance and achieve the cumulative feed consumption or BW of control fed hens by 56 WOA. (via Semantic Scholar)

The use of poultry litter as Co-substrate and source of inorganic nutrients and microorganisms for the ex situ biodegradation of petroleum compounds

POULTRY SCIENCE, 78(7), 956–964.

By: C. Williams n, J. Grimes n & R. Mikkelsen n

author keywords: poultry litter; biodegradation; petroleum hydrocarbons; nitrogen; phosphorus
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodegradation, Environmental; Chickens; Feces; Petroleum; Turkeys
TL;DR: The results showed that the remediation of soil contaminated with petroleum compounds is significantly enhanced when supplemented with poultry litter ( pelleted or nonpelleted) in concentrations of 10% soil volume, demonstrating the potential for a specialized market for the use of poultry litter.

By: J. Grimes n, D. Maurice*, S. Lightsey* & J. Lopez

author keywords: egg proteins; egg shell quality; feed efficiency; fermentation feed; fermentation feed additive; SCWL laying hens
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, under conditions of this study, inclusion of FER at 0.2% improved feed utilization, and this was associated with feed staying longer in the digestive tract, and that metabolizable energy values of diets were higher when FER was included in the diet.
