Model comparison to evaluate a shell quality bio-complex in layer hens.

Poultry science - 1 Nov 2016

Arango J, Wolc A, Settar P, O'Sullivan N P

Abstract excerpt

Reducing the incidence of egg shell breakage is an important selection goal in egg layer hens breeding. Breaking strength provides an indicator of static shell resistance correlated with shell thickness. Acoustic egg tests combine shell's resonance profile with egg mass to calculate dynamic stiffness (KDyn) a quantitative indicator of integral shell resistance, and a novel direct detection of both cracks and...
