Impact of growth curve and dietary energy-to-protein ratio of broiler breeders on egg quality and egg composition

ABSTRACT: Egg characteristics have an impact on embryonic development and post-hatch performance of broilers. The impact of growth curve (GC) and dietary energy-to-protein ratio of broiler breeder hens on egg characteristics was investigated. At hatch, 1,536 pullets were randomly allotted to 24 pens...
