Özet |
The study was conducted to determine the effect of laying period on egg quality traits as well as the chemical composition ofLindovskaya geese. The egg quality traits were examined by randomly taking a total of 90 eggs on the 45th ± 5, 60th ± 5, and 75th ± 5days of the laying period from 3-year-old female Lindovskaya geese. It was determined that the effect of the laying period on externalquality traits of eggs was statistically nonsignificant (P > 0.05). The effect of laying period on internal quality traits including height,diameter, and index of the yolk and albumen was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The eggs collected on the 45th ± 5 day had highervalues compared to eggs obtained on the other days in terms of yolk height, diameter, and index, as well as albumen length and albumenwidth. The effect of laying period on dry matter, protein, and ash ratio of the egg yolk and albumen was statistically significant (P < 0.05).Dry matter and protein ratios of the yolk and albumen reached their peaks on the 75th ± 5 day of the laying period. These results are thefirst data for identification of egg quality traits in Turkish-reared Lindovskaya geese. It was concluded that the quality of eggs obtainedon the 45th ± 5 day of the laying period was higher than those obtained on the other two control days in terms of internal traits. |
