Composition of eggs from dwarf and normal chickens before incubation and at hatching in lines selected for 56-day body weight.

Poultry science - 1 Sept 1990

Nir I, Dunnington E A, Siegel P B

Abstract excerpt

Comparisons of egg composition prior to incubation and when the chick had pipped through the shell were made for dwarf (D) and normal (N) chickens from lines selected for high (H) or low (L) body weight. Weight of moisture, ash, and fat decreased and nonlipid organic matter increased during incubation. The pattern for these components was the same on a percentage of egg weight basis except that there was no...
