I am currently having a discussion with a religious teacher of mine about
the theoretical implications of chickens developing from unfertilised eggs.
Can Parthogenesis (Development of a live offspring from an unfertilised
egg) be induced in chickens or other poultry. If so, how?
Does this ever occur naturally?
What effect does it have on the haploid chicken? - health, fertility,
subsequent parthogenesis, etc.
Please E-mail your answers to me as well as raising the discussion in the
group.
Thanks
