Bone and eggshell quality throughout an extended laying cycle in three strains of layers spanning 50 years of selection

Decades of intensive genetic selection in commercial layers has resulted in earlier maturation, while sustaining high production rates to 100 wks of age (woa). To support eggshell formation while maintaining a healthy skeletal frame, substantial adaptations of calcium metabolism in the hen are neces...
