'bank" for calcium
The medullary cavity contains yellow bone marrow.
The medullary bone is not a specific bone in the skeleton of a chicken, it is a type of bone. Medullary bone is unique to female avians. It is an unstable secondary bone in the marrow cavities of bones that can be used during the reproductive period. If a calcium deficient diet is fed to laying hens, the hens will deplete their own skeleton of calcium by using the reserves in the medullary bone structure.When this happens a paralysis can happen called Cage Layer Fatigue.
The medullary cavity is the central cavity of bone shafts. This is where red and yellow bone marrow are stored. The medullary cavity is also involved in the formation of red and white blood cells.

the medullary cavity in the bone is located in the middle of a long bone and yellow marrow is located here (only seen in adults).
Blood vessels in these canals supply blood to osteons deeper in the bone and to tissues of the medullary cavity.

Red marrow is found in spongy bone, and makes blood. Yellow marrow is found in the medullary cavity and stores fat.
The yellow marrow in the medullary cavity in long bones functions as a fat storage area.
