Effects of chronic acceleration on induced nystagmus in the fowl

Charles M. Winget 1, Arthur H. Smith 1, and C. F. Kelly 1

1 Department of Poultry Husbandry, University of California, Davis, California

Domestic fowl exposed to chronic acceleration (prolonged centrifugation) do not appear to "habituate" to repeated rotatory stimulation, as do similarly treated birds maintained at normal gravity. Chronically accelerated birds frequently exhibit postural or locomotor abnormalities, and such individuals lack a nystagmic response to rotatory stimulation.
