Table 3. Survival rates of early-feathering (EF) and late-feathering (LF) Korean native chickens
Feathering types | Growing period (2~14wks) | Laying period (15~40wks) | Total period (2~40wks) |
| | % | |
EF chickens | 100±0.0 | 97.7±1.3a | 98.6±2.3a |
LF chickens | 99.2±0.4 | 94.1±3.2b | 94.5±4.9b |
Values (Means±SD) with different superscript within the same column significantly differ (P<0.01).
