Combination of In Ovo Nutritional Components Improves Embryonic Development, Growth Performance, and Gut Health in Broiler Chickens

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of intra‐amniotic administration of combined energy, amino acid, and vitamin sources on embryonic development, post‐hatch growth performance, and intestinal health in broiler chickens. On Day 18 of incubation, 460 fertile Ross 308 eggs were allocated to four groups: non‐injected negative control (NC), saline ...
