Yolk corticosterone and progesterone levels in Greater Rhea (Rhea americana) eggs vary in a changing social environment
Maternal hormones in avian egg yolks may signal and prepare offspring for the prevailing conditions. However, this adjustment requires some degree of flexibility in regulating yolk hormone deposition. The Greater Rhea (Rhea americana) has a particular mating system that combines mixed polygyny and p...
