Incubation and embryo development
Embryo Physiology During Last Incubation Period and in Egg Nutrition
Published: September 28, 2011
Summary
An improvement in the rate of gain of broilers during the last two decades has made the incubation period a larger percentage of the overall growth period for commercial poultry (Hulet, 2007). Therefore, incubation and the last days toward hatch have gained more relative importance to the successful rearing of meat poultry than ever before. It is expected that anything that supports or limits gro...

Thankyou Zehava, Good article about Embryo physiology during last incubation period and in egg nutrition. It will be nice if more & more work is done in this direction. In past two decades we have successfully reduced the rearing time of the commercial chicken in order to reach markatable weight, most of it due to the genetic development. Now is the time we should look for more work on the nutritional aspect. Breeder nutrtion and successful transfer of the nutrients to embryo will play a vital role in future.

Completely agree with you! Current research in my lab shows that embryos do not have mineral resources in their yolk from E 17 (see Yair and Uni 2011 in Poultry Sci).
