Interrelationships between Morphological, Densitometric and Mechanical Properties of Eggs in Japanese Quails (Coturnix Japonica)

Interrelationships between Morphological, Densitometric and Mechanical Properties of Eggs in Japanese Quails (Coturnix Japonica)

Eggshell quality in birds results from mineral density and composition determining its mechanical endurance. The aim of the study was to determine interrelationships between morphological, densitometric and mechanical properties of eggs in Japanese quails. Twenty four eggs randomly collected from...
