Genetic variation for egg production, egg quality and bone strength in selected and traditional breeds of laying fowl.

British poultry science - 1 Jul 2003

Hocking P M, Bain M, Channing C E, Fleming R, Wilson S

Abstract excerpt

1. A multi-breed experiment was conducted with 25 commercial and traditional lines of laying fowl to determine the extent of between-breed genetic variation for adult body weight, sexual maturity, rate of lay, egg weight and egg composition to 55 weeks of age. The genetic variability for bone strength and eggshell strength was determined at 55 weeks of age and a comparison of commercially selected and traditional...
