The Effect of Vitamin C in-ovo Injection on Incubation Results of Fertile Goose Eggs

Abstract

The aim of the research is to determine the effect of vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) injected at different doses on the hatchability of eggs obtained from domestic geese raised in the Afyonkarahisar region. Injected doses of vitamin C, 8 and 10 mg were applied to the air cell of the eggs on the 24th day of incubation. As a result of the experiment, vitamin C given to fertile goose eggs positively affected hatch weight, chick length, and chick quality. There was no significant difference between the groups regarding hatchability and survival rate.

Döllü Kaz Yumurtalarında Vitamin C In-Ovo Enjeksiyonunun Kuluçka Sonuçlarına Etkisi

Abstract

Araştırmanın amacı, Afyonkarahisar yöresinde yetiştirilen yerli kazlardan elde edilen yumurtalara farklı dozlarda enjekte edilen C vitamininin (Askorbik asit) kuluçka kabiliyetine etkisini belirlemektir. Enjekte edilen C vitamini dozları, inkübasyonun 24. gününde 8 ve 10 mg olmak üzere yumurtaların hava hücresine uygulanmıştır. Deneme sonucunda döllü kaz yumurtalarına yumurta içi verilen vitamin C çıkım ağırlığı, civciv uzunluğu ve civciv kalitesi üzerine olumlu etki yapmıştır. Çıkım gücü ve yaşama gücü bakımından gruplar arasında anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmamıştır.
