对尼日尔凯塔地区乡村家禽种群动态进行了研究。每周对五个村庄随机抽取 47 个家庭进行为期 8 周的旱季调查和 8 周雨季调查。主要饲养品种有：鸡、珍珠鸡、鸽子和鸭。 85% 的情况下，家禽由男性饲养，15% 的情况由女性饲养。鸽子是由孩子们饲养的。饲料和住房都很简陋。死亡主要是由于雏鸡和种植者的捕食造成的，而其他损失则是由于践踏、溺水和雨水造成的。在调查期间，因疾病造成的死亡率可以忽略不计。 83% 的鸡和 43% 的珍珠鸡因死亡和捕食而死亡。珍珠鸡 (57%) 的消费和销售比例高于鸡肉 (14%)。
The dynamics of the village poultry population was studied in the region of Keita in Niger. A weekly survey was carried out for 8 weeks in the dry season and 8 weeks in the rainy season in 47 families chosen at random in five villages. The principal species raised were: chickens, guinea fowl, pigeons and ducks. In 85% of cases, poultry was owned by men and in 15% by women. Pigeons were kept by children. Feed and housing were rudimentary. Mortality was essentially due to predation of chicks and of growers while other losses were through trampling, drowning and rain. Mortality due to disease was negligible during the periods of the survey. Mortality and predation were responsible for 83% of offtakes from chickens and 43% from guinea fowl. A greater proportion of guinea fowl (57%) were consumed and sold than chickens (14%).
