Provedor de dados: 89
Autores: Yilmaz-Dikmen,B; Dikmen,S.
The present study was carried out to determine the sex of the fertilized white layer eggs with using morphological measurements. A total of 300 Super Nick White Layer (54 wks of age) eggs were incubated and sexed in the end of incubation period. Before incubation egg length, width and weight were measured. The egg volume and shape index were estimated with using these measurements for each egg. The effect of egg weight and replicate number was not significant on the sex of the hatching chick (p &amp;gt; 0.05). The effects of egg shape index (p = 0.001), egg length (p = 0.0018), egg width (p &lt; 0.01) and volume (p = 0.004) of the egg had significant effect on the sex of hatching chick. According to the results of the current study, morphological...
