Histomorphogenesis of Upper Beak in Muscovy Ducks (Cairina moschata)

The objective of the present work was to provide information on the histology and morphometry of the upper beak of developmental ages of Muscovy Ducks (Cairina moschata) by using fourty nine healthy post-hatching Muscovy ducks of both sexes ranging from 1-60 days old. The upper beak was a wide spoon...
