Internal and external quality characters of poultry eggs are quitely important to determine egg weight. Also, the is for both hatching production. The purpose this study was modelling weight with MARS (Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines) method using inner outsider in Lohmann LSL Classic white hybrit flock. For purpose, hybrid flock (n=60) were used. Weekly yields evaluated from 22nd week...

AIM The present study was conducted to evaluate the performance of gray, brown, and white varieties of Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) with respect to body weight, egg production, and egg quality traits in the coastal climatic condition of Odisha. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 500-day-old straight run Japanese quail chicks of three varieties, viz., gray, brown, and white were r...

the present study was carried out to investigate the replacement of soybean meal by different levels of canola meal (either with or without canola meal undergoing heat processing). two hundred forty commercial layer hens (lsl strain) at 54th week of age, selected based on the same egg production percentage and body weight. the experimental design was a crd, in a factorial arrangement of 4 repli...

This study aimed at evaluating the effect of dietary calcium levels and the replacement of calcium sources with different particle size compositions on the performance and egg quality of brown layers in their second egg production cycle. A randomized block experimental design was applied with 12 treatments in a 3x4 factorial arrangement: three calcium levels (2.6, 3.2, 3.8 %) and four combinati...

to determine the effect of hen age and storage condition on egg quality, fresh eggs were sampled from two commercial flocks of white leghorn hens at 28 and 68 weeks of age. half of sampled eggs from each flock were stored at 6°c and the other half was stored at room temperature. fifteen eggs were randomly sampled from each treatment following collection and at 5-day intervals to 30 days of stor...

this trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of different dietary factors that affect egg cholesterol concentration in laying hens of 56 to 70 weeks of age. three hundred and ninety six hy-line w36 laying hens were subjected to 11 experimental treatments, each treatment consisting of 4 replicates, each replicate of 9 hens. dietary treatments included the control, made up of corn plus soy me...

Eggs obtained from 46 and 42 weeks old meat (Hybro) and layer (Leghorn) breeders flocks, respectively were used to examine the effects of genetic type of birds and egg size (small, medium and large) on variables of eggshell characteristics and hatchability traits. The variables measured were egg weight (EW), egg surface area (ESA) and eggshell characteristics (shell conductance (EC), per cent s...

introduction breeding quail and quail egg industrial production because of the high nutritional value of these products has been developing these years. considering the high demand and economical production, further development in the future is predicted. in order to design and effective utilization of the equipment for transportation, separation, packaging and storage, the physical and mechani...
