The Effects of Different Methods on Yield Performances of Japanase Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
Abstract
At the present time, current resources are being forced in order to supply the protein requirement of rapidly increasing population, while the investigation of the new resources are being held. Quail is another option in poultry industry in last decades. The quails which do not need to big investments because of their structural features and having high yield performance in short period are economic animals. As quail eggs are useful for some disea- ses and its meat’s delicacy is increasing its popularity among consumers because of having low oil and cholesterol content and their products are thought to be good alternative food as animal protein source. In this review, various studies including age, egg weight, male female ratio, storage period and temperature that affect the yield traits have been evaluated in order to determine the optimal environmental factors for their best genetic capacity.
