Incubation Temperature and growth performance

A very good research. Although we know the importance of temperature and its influence during the life cycle of poultry but this excellent research demonstrated that higher temperature or uneven temperature, even, during incubation could result in adverse results. Other issue that require attention during hatching procedure in proper circulation of air inside incubator, fresh air should reach every corner of the machine so that excessive heat could be removed from the eggs. This article demonstrates that with proper management to control heat and circulation inside incubator would result in better performance, not only at hatching but also after during growth of the bird.

The author discussed very important issue about chick quality. The variation in egg weight of a flock also affect chick quality. The subsequent performance of chick also depend on the machines have single stage or multistage settings.

Thank you and Best Regarads.
