Comparative study of egg quality parameters of different breeds of peacock

The current research work was conducted to compare the external and internal egg quality parameters of different breeds peacock. For this purpose, 130 freshly laid eggs 2 species 11 (n = 10 per breed) were obtained from captive breeding facilities. In Pavo muticus muticus, higher weight (106.57 ± 0.69), length (7.21 0.01), width (5.31 breadth (28.18 volume (100.84 0.48) recorded. However, shape index (80.16 0.27) noted in black shoulder, while surface area (263.8 0.01) found Spalding purple. Significantly albumen diameter (11.02 0.05), (47.06 0.24), height (0.946 0.02), ratio (49.83 0.13), yolk (1.66 (35.75 shell thickness (0.67 0.00) cristatus. Albumen pH (6.43 (6.93 0.04), (61.80 0.87), (51.66 0.34) be Indian white. Higher (16.38 0.42), (17.004 0.38), Haugh unit (88.57 0.84) observed Buford bronze pied. study suggested that P.m. cristatus showed best traits as compared other breeds. It further provided a reference theoretical basis for artificial breeding, ecological protection, raising, management peacocks.
