  • Title: A goose head holder device for chronic experiments.
    Author: Felix B, Roesch T.
    Journal: Brain Res Bull; 1984 May; 12(5):577-80. PubMed ID: 6380653.
    Abstract:
    A special device is described which allows experiments to be performed on chronic non-anaesthetized geese. This system is composed of two elements: one is fixed to the stereotaxic apparatus, the other is implanted on the goose skull. The use of ear bars and eye and bill pieces is thus eliminated. This non-painful adaptation is well tolerated by the bird. In addition, the position of the animal with regard to stereotaxic coordinates is unchanged. This technique provides an essential tool for furthering investigations on the central nervous system in geese.
