PARENTAL BEHAVIOR CONTROLS INCUBATION PERIOD AND ASYNCHRONY OF HATCHING IN MAGELLANIC PENGUINS.

The article presents a study concerning parental behavior controls during incubation stage and asynchrony of hatching in Magellanic Penguins. It states that two eggs were tested whether its temperatures differ and the delayed onset of incubation affects the pattern. Moreover, it notes that parental incubation behavior define why the incubation period of second eggs was shorter that of first eggs.
