Sample sizes for each experimental group (C, control; S, stress) are indicated. Sample sizes differ among analyses because of the death or loss of chicks and/or insufficient volume of sample. Note that only nonimplanted chicks were recaptured at 30 d of age. See main text for details. CORT, corticosterone; FQ, feather quality; TC, time to crouch.
