Objective: This study aims to investigate the effects of time and light variation on the growth and reproductive performances of breeder geese.
Methods: A total of 32 ganders and 96 dames in their first laying season, with an average age of 10 months, were assigned to eight rooms, each containing four ganders and twelve dams. A split-plot design was used, incorporating two prelay photoperiod treatments: a 7-hour light period (P7H), in which the photoperiod was maintained at seven hours for the first six weeks, and a gradually decreasing light (GDL) group, in which the light duration was initially set at 12 hours and then reduced by one hour per week during the prelay period.
