Effects of pre-storage gum arabic application on hatch results and chick performance in hatching quail eggs

In this study, the effects of pre-storage coating different ratios gum arabic on hatching traits and chick growth performance were investigated. Treatment groups; eggs treated with 5% stored for 7 days (7-5G), 14 (14-5G), 10% (7-10G) applied (14-10G). After application, at 13 °C 75% humidity or days. a total 800 used, 200 in each four groups. Regardless have less egg weight loss than (P<0.05). There no statistically significant differences found hatchability set (HSE). The highest fertile (HFE) 7-5G (88.22%) lowest HFE was observed 14-10G (73.96%) terms embryonic mortality, between groups 1-9 17-18 insignificant. Embryonic mortality (16.49%) group 10-16-day period No among body hatch yolk sac ratio (YSR). relative 14-10 G As result, application storage can be recommended long-term since it does not negative effect hatchability, performance.
