Fayoumi Yumurtalarda İnkubasyon Süresince LED Işıklandırmanın Yumurtadan Çıkma ve Civciv Performansına Etkisi

Bu çalışmanın amacı Fayoumi yumurtalarda inkubasyon süresince LED ışıklandırmanın yumurtadan çıkma ve civciv performansı üzerine etkisini araştırmaktır. Toplam 2100 yumurta kullanılarak ve üç grup olacak şekilde çalışma yürütüldü. Yumurtalar 24 saat tümüyle karanlık (G1), 24 saat tümüyle LED ışıklandırma (G2) ve 12 saat LED ışıklandırma ve sonrasında 12 saat karanlık (G3) olacak şekilde inkube edildiler. Sonuçlar LED ışıklandırmanın yumurtadan çıkma yüzdesi ve embriyo ölümlerine etkisinin olmadığını gösterdi. Her üç grup arasında civciv performansında anlamlı bir fark gözlenmedi. Yumurtadan çıkma zamanında civciv ağırlığı inkubasyon sırasında tümüyle LED ışığa maruz kalanlarda (G2) en fazla olup yüksek hayatta kalma yüzdesine sahipti.

Effect of LED Lighting during Incubation of Fayoumi Eggs on Hatchability and Chick Performance

This study aims to evaluate the effect of LED lighting during incubation of Fayoumi eggs on hatchability and hatch chick performance. The experiment was carried out in three groups with total number of 2100 eggs. Eggs were incubated 24 h of complete darkness (G1); 24 h of complete LED lighting (G2); and 12 h of LED lighting then 12 h of darkness (G3). From the obtained results, there were no effects of LED lighting on hatchability percent and dead embryos. There were significant differences observed in chick performance among the three groups, chick weight at hatch was the heaviest in group of eggs exposed to complete LED lighting during incubation (G2) with high vitality percent.
