A total of 6300 eggs were analysed on-site for egg weight, albumen height and Haugh Units. In addition, a total of 18,039 eggs were analysed in the laboratory for the full range of egg shell quality and egg internal quality measurements. Data were compared for state of Australia, strain of bird and production system. In general, egg shell quality and egg internal quality were relatively independent of state, strain of bird and egg production system although there was a range of values for all parameters measured. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | APSS 2010: 21st Annual Australian Poultry Science Symposium, Sydney, Australia, 1st - 3rd February, 2010 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Australian Poultry Science Symposium, v.21, p. 86-89 | Publisher: | University of Sydney | Place of Publication: | Sydney, Australia | ISSN: | 1034-6260 1034-3466 |
