Summary. Dynamics of topography and length of the midgut divisions in the common quail of the Pharaoh breed were studied using a complex of morphological techniques. Morphometric and anatomical topographic studies were performed by anatomical preparation of the sections of the middle intestine. To clarify the topography of the middle intestine, morphometry of the thoracoabdominal cavity of quails of 1-120-day-old age was carried out according to the following anatomical and topographical marks: length of the thoracoabdominal cavity (perpendicular from the first thoracic to the first caudal vertebra); height of the thoracoabdominal cavity (perpendicular from the lumbar vertebrae to the cranial margin of the middle process of the keel); maximum of the thoracoabdominal cavity width (perpendicular between the middle sections of the last pair of sternal ribs); minimum width of the bladder (perpendicular between the hip joints). Statistical processing of digital material was carried out on a personal computer. It was established that in the 1-day's quail with minimum parameters of the thoracoabdominal cavity minimal long-length measurements of the middle intestine sections are manifested. The jejunum occupies the largest volume of the body cavity. With the age in 10- and 30 day's birds an increase in the length of the midgut divisions occurs, which, in the background of the disappearance of the yolk sac and the development of the subserous adipose tissue determines which determine the change in the topography of the organs of the thoracoabdominal cavity.

Keywords: dynamics, quail, morphological techniques, thoracoabdominal cavity, living mass, yolk-sac, organs, middle intestine, topography, morphometry.
