“…For potassium the value of D[K] did not differ for turned, unturned, fertilised or unfertilised eggs of Japanese quail during 24 to 72 hours of incubation: mean values ranged from 0.1 to 0.28 mM L À1 (Latter and Baggott, 2000b;Latter, 2000). As also observed for sodium, D[K] of unincubated eggs and eggs incubated for 24 hours was the same (Latter, 2000).…”

Formation of sub-embryonic fluid (SEF) is a key aspect of the physiology of the early avian embryo. Here we review the process of SEF formation and the factors which influence its composition and the rate of SEF production and depletion in the Japanese quail and domestic fowl. There is particular emphasis on the role of turning of the egg during incubation and we briefly consider the broader role of egg turning during avian incubation. The bulk of the review deals with the growth of the area vasculosa of the yolk sac membrane, the cellular processes of SEF formation, and the water and electrolyte physiology of the avian embryo during the first half of incubation.We conclude with a brief discussion of the areas for future investigation.
