Abstract: The quail raising in Brazil has increased through the last years and the incubation procedures are important to maintenance and improvement of quail egg production. To obtain a sufficient number of eggs to fill an incubator, eggs are usually accumulated in storage over a period from 1 day up to 3 weeks before incubation. The objective of this research was to verify the effect of egg storage on hatchability and egg weight loss for two lineages of Japanese quails. Sixty four Japanese quails were divided in two g… Show more

“…In another study on the effect of eggshell colour in quail eggs (Farghly et al, 2015), weight loss was reported as 15.70% in eggs with white coloured eggshell, 15.42% in eggs with spotted brown eggshell, and 14.04% in eggs with spotted violet eggshell. The weight losses determined in the present study are higher than those reported for quail eggs by Romao et al (2008), Genchev (2009), Nowaczewski et al (2010, Nowaczewski et al (2012), and Aygun and Sert (2013) and lower than those reported by Farghly et al (2015). The differences between the results of these studies were attributed to the use of hatching eggs from animals of varying genotypes and ages, the use of different setters for embryonic development, and different environmental conditions having been adjusted in the setters.…”

“…These results are in support of the reports of Ar et al (1974) and Rahn and Ar (1974) suggesting that eggs with a thicker eggshell have lower gas permeability. In an investigation carried out in meat-type and egg-type quails, Romao et al (2008) reported egg weight losses in the embryonic development period to have occurred at the rates of 8.27 and 9.31%, respectively. Furthermore, egg weight loss during incubation was reported as 9.72% in meat-type Pharaoh quails (Genchev, 2009).…”

“…For eggs stored for less than 4 d, egg room temperature should be 20-25°C, whereas for those stored 4-7 d, temperature should be maintained between 16 and 17°C, and for eggs stored for more than 7 d, temperature should be lowered to 10-12°C (Meijerhof, 1992). Narahari et al (1988) stored the hatching eggs of Japanese quails for a period of 1-7 d and determined that the highest rates of fertility and hatchability of fertile eggs were obtained in the eggs stored for 1-3 d. Similar results were obtained by Petek et al (2003), who recommended that the storage period of eggs of quail should be no longer than 3 d. However, Romao et al (2008) reported that quail eggs present great hatchability until 10 d of storage and that eggs offered to storage present a reduced weight loss during incubation. Different studies showed that hatchability of eggs decreases quickly after 8 d of storage period for pheasant (Demirel and Kırıkçı, 2009), 7 d of storage time for duck (Onba ılar et al, 2007), 5 d of storage time for broiler breeder hen (Petek and Dikmen, 2006) , 28 d of storage length for partridge (González-Redondo, 2010), 15 d of storage length for ostrich (Hassan et al, 2005) and 4 d of storage length for guinea fowl eggs (Moreki and Ditshupo, 2012).…”

“…The important factor to activate the production system of quail is the production of quail chicks, involve in this process obtain a sufficient number of eggs to fill an Hatchery (Kuurmon et al 5 ). Romao et al 6 reported that eggs from quails usually accumulated and storage over a period from 1 day up to 3 weeks before incubation. There are many factors affecting hatchability of stored eggs before incubation , for instance storage temperature and storage length period , Romao et al 6 also recorded that egg-type quail eggs had 85 % hatchability when storage up to 10 days at 20 C and 60 % of relative humidity .…”
