Abstract

This study evaluated the subsequent effect of photoperiods during incubation on post-hatch growth and stress response of commercial broiler chickens. A total of 875 Ross 308 broiler breeder (48 weeks of age) eggs were hatched using different durations (0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 h a day) of dichromatic light [green and red (495 to 750 nm); 2700 K; 250 lux; SUNJIE; China] throughout the whole period of incubation. A total of 50 0-day-old hatched straight run broiler chicks from each photoperiod during incubation were used to evaluate subsequent growth performance (feed intake, body weight, and feed conversion ratio); stress parameters (physical asymmetry, tonic immobility, and vocalization,); welfare traits (feather score and gait score); carcass traits (live weight, dressed weight, carcass yield, liver weight, gizzard weight, heart weight, abdominal fat weight, breast weight, and leg weight); and serum chemistry (globulin, total protein, cholesterol, glucose, and uric acid). There were no influences of photoperiod during incubation on post-hatch growth, stress parameters, welfare, and carcass traits. Heart yield was higher in birds incubated under 20 h light than in those from the 16 h light group. Incubation under different lighting durations also altered blood biochemical profile but did not influence serum globulin and cholesterol levels. It was concluded that under experimental conditions, incubation of broiler eggs under different lighting durations did not impact subsequent post-hatch performance (21-35 d).

孵化期间不同光周期对孵化后肉鸡性能和应激反应的影响
本研究评估了孵化期间光周期对商品肉鸡孵化后生长和应激反应的后续影响。在整个孵化期间,使用不同时间段(每天 0、4、8、12、16、20 和 24 小时)的二色光[绿色和红色(495 至 750 nm);2700 K;250 勒克斯;SUNJIE;中国]孵化了 875 枚 Ross 308 肉种鸡(48 周龄)种蛋。在孵化期间,每个光照周期共孵化 50 只 0 日龄直系肉用仔鸡,用于评估其后的生长性能(采食量、体重和饲料转化率)、应激参数(体态不对称、强直性不运动和发声)、福利性状(羽毛评分和步态);福利性状(羽毛评分和步态评分);胴体性状(活重、胴体重、胴体产量、肝重、胗重、心重、腹脂重、胸重和腿重);以及血清化学(球蛋白、总蛋白、胆固醇、葡萄糖和尿酸)。孵化期间的光周期对孵化后的生长、应激参数、福利和胴体性状没有影响。在20小时光照下孵化的鸡的心脏产量高于16小时光照组。不同光照时间也会改变血液生化指标,但不会影响血清球蛋白和胆固醇水平。结论是,在实验条件下,肉鸡蛋在不同光照时间下孵化不会影响孵化后(21-35 d)的生产性能。
