Allometry of the Duration of Flight Feather Molt in Birds

We used allometric scaling to explain why the regular replacement of the primary flight feathers requires disproportionately more time for large birds. Primary growth rate scales to mass (M) as M (0.171), whereas the summed length of the primaries scales almost twice as fast (M (0.316)). The ratio o...
