Abstract:

 

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of hatching egg weight and parental age on the hatching chick  weight and sixth week of age live weight of Japanese Quail ( Coturnix coturnix japonica). The first experiment was carried out with  a total of 450 quail chicks hatched from three different egg weights groups (A, 11.0-11.9 g; B, 12.0-12.9 g; C, 13.0-13.9 g). In  the second experiment, a total of 200 quail chicks hatched from eggs of two different age groups (22 and 65 wks of age) were  used.  As a result of the first experiment, average chick weights at the hatching and live weight of six weeks age were determined as 6.98,  7.56, 8.39 g and 178.16, 182.92, 181.32 g for A, B and C groups, respectively. There were significantly differences (P.
