Effects of egg arrangement (arranged or scattered) and clutch position (inner or outer part) on temperature and cooling rates of Japanese quail clutches (n = 2).

Clutches were heated to 38°C and subsequently cooled in ambient temperature (12°C). Measurements were recorded at 79.1 ± 3.6 s intervals (mean ± SE) for a period of 30 min.
1 Controlled for time of measurement
