dc.description.abstractThe present study was undertaken to elucidate the incidence of tibiotarsal rotation and its relation to productivity in emu birds at Regional Research Centre, Pudukkottai. A total of 15 chicks were affected among 116 chicks hatched during the breeding season. In the present study, the severely affected eight emu chicks (mean i SE) died on 39.76: 4.07 days of age. Seven chicks showed only mild symptoms and were able to survive with reduced movement. The study revealed 12.93 per cent of chicks were affected with tibiotarsal rotation in 4 to 8 weeks age group. Further significant difference (P S 0.05) was observed between the body weight (Kg) of tibiotarsal affected and control group emu birds.en_US
