Poultry Improvement Project The Skeletal System

Skeleton of the Chicken Basic skeleton is similar to other mammals with several differences. Birds possess a pair of extra bones in the shoulder area called the coracoids. –This pair of bones facilitates wing movement and offers additional support for the wings. –Also the cervical vertebrae (neck bones) form an S-shaped column connecting the body to the head.

When the bird lands, the pressure is exerted thoughout the body and the S-shaped column acts as a spring. The vertebrae along the trunk and body are fused together to provide support for the wings. Skeletal system is connected to the respiratory system and many bones are pneumatic. Pneumatic bones are hollow and are connected to the respiratory system, thereby serving as a reservoir for air and reducing the weight of the bird for flight.
