“…Lea et al 1981;Hall & Goldsmith, 1982), although the first increase in canaries occurs only after the clutch is complete. The stimuli received by the incubating bird from the nest could presumably be visual, tactile or both and it has been suggested that the avain brood patch is responsive to tactile stimulation from the nest (Hinde, Bell & Steel, 1963). The brood patches of canaries (Hinde, 1962;White & Hinde, 1968), grouse (Etches, Garbutt & Middleton, 1979), bantams (Lea et al 1981) and ducks (Hall & Goldsmith, 1982) begin development just before incubation and particularly in canaries become completely defeathered and highly vascularized and oedematous during incubation.…”

“…Brood patch formation in passerine birds, which occurs around the time of egglaying, involves defeathering and vascularization of the ventral apterium (Bailey, 1952) and an increase in its tactile sensitivity (Hinde, Bell & Steel, 1963). Previous experiments (Bailey, 1952;Hinde & Steel, 1964;Selander & Yang, 1966) indicate that:…”

“…nest-building) behaviour (Warren & Hinde, 1961;Hinde & Steel, 1962). In conformity with this, the ventral surface becomes more sensitive to tactile stimulation as the reproductive season advances (Hinde, Bell & Steel, 1963). Vascularization of the brood patch can be induced by exogenous oestradiol benzoate and defeathering by this oestrogen in combination with either progesterone or prolactin .…”
