Abstract

Bank Myna is a wild Passerine seasonal breeder of North India. Higher values of serum Ca had been documented in early breeding season which gradually reduced in late breeding season. Eggshell Ca content closely correspond the rise and fall in serum Ca level. Highest serum Ca level of 15.13+0.146mg/dl and eggshell Ca content of 357.25+0.310mg/g were recorded in first week of June.
