The articulations formed within the mandible of the domestic fowl by its constituent elements have been described and illustrated. The sutures identified were suturae angulosplenialis, angulosupra-angularis, articulare/pre-articulo-angularis, articulare/pre-articulosupra-angularis, dento-angularis, dentosplenialis, dentosupra-angularis and supra-angulosplenialis. Some degree of fusion was found to occur in all sutures except sutura supra-angulosplenialis. The range of fusion time and mean fusion time for each site was studied in a flock of Golden Comet pullets. Mean fusion times varied from 45-119 days post-hatching.
家鸡下颌骨内由其组成元素形成的关节已被描述和图示。确定的缝有角脾缝、角上隅骨缝、关节/前关节隅骨缝、关节/前关节上隅骨缝、牙隅骨缝、牙脾缝、牙上隅骨缝和上隅脾缝。除上隅脾缝外，所有缝均发现有一定程度的融合。在一群金色彗星小母鸡中研究了每个部位的融合时间范围和平均融合时间。平均融合时间在孵化后45至119天之间变化。
