Abstract |
The present study examined the effectiveness of Oregano (Origanum vulgare L) and Ginger (Zingiber officinale) oils versus formaldehyde fumigation (FF) to disinfect While Leghorn and Matrouh hatching eggshell surface and maintain hatching results and chick performance after hatch. Hatchability was not affected by breed of birds. however, the chick quality measured as live body weight feed conversion ratio and viability percentage of Matrouh chicks were significantly better as compared to While Leghorn chicks at 4 or 8 weeks of age Significant differences between Origanum vulgare L or Ginger oils and formaldehyde fumigation in the hatchability of eggs were observed. Embryo mortality was lower in both of Origanum vulgare L and Ginger oils groups und their combination group compared 10 control and formaldehyde fumigation groups. The best chick weight at hatch time was observed in the Ginger oil group. Performance of chicks after hatch showed that the best results for live body weight and feed conversion ratio at 4 or 8 weeks of age were recorded in the Origanum vulgare L and Ginger essential oils groups,
KeyWords: Essential oils, formaldehyde fumigution, disinfection, hatching eggs chick quality.
