Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies · 2017 · Vol. 5(6) · pp. 1274–1277
Abstract
Assessment of reproductive hormones levels viz., estrogen, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) during breeding and non-breeding seasons were studied for a period of 12 months in four to 12 year-old female ostrich. The mean blood plasma estrogen, FSH and LH in female ostrich were 6.99 pg/ml, 0.48 ng/ml and 2.23 ng/ml, respectively. The effect of the month and season on estrogen, FSH and LH level showed significant (P
