dc.description.abstract | This study aimed at investigating the effects of three incubation
temperatures during the hatching period on egg weight loss, hatchability,
chick weight at hatching and length of the incubation period of redlegged
partridge (Alectoris rufa) under artificial incubation. One
hundred and fifty eggs obtained from a red-legged partridge game farm
were randomly allocated to three batches of 50 eggs each. Eggs were
incubated at 37.8ºC during the first 20 days, and subsequently at 37.0,
37.4 or 37.8ºC until hatching. Fertility was 74.7% and a good hatching
performance was obtained, characterized by 85.7% hatchability, 9.1%
egg weight loss after 20 days of incubation, 13.8±0.1 g chick weight
at hatching, and 23.2±0.1 days incubation length. Hatchability, egg
weight loss after 20 days of incubation, and length of the incubation
period were not affected by incubation temperature during the
hatching period. However, hatching synchrony improved when the
incubation temperature was increased from 37.0 to 37.8°C (p<0.05).
Thus, hatching distribution became very leptokurtic and very positively
skewed with the increase in incubation temperature during the hatching
phase. In conclusion, higher hatching synchrony can be achieved in A.
rufa when setting temperatures within the range 37.0 to 37.8ºC to
incubate eggs during the hatching period. Consequently, incubation
temperature management during the hatching phase may have a direct
impact on hatching synchrony and hatchling management | es |
