dc.description.abstract | A study was carried out to assess the external and internal qualities of White Pekin and Indigenous duck eggs. External egg quality traits such as Egg Weight, Shape Index, Surface Area and Air Cell depth and Internal egg quality traits such as Albumen Index, Haugh Unit, Yolk Index, Shell Thickness and Yolk Colour were recorded once in 15 days from 20th week onwards for the period of two months. The results revealed that White Pekin duck eggs had significantly (P<0.01) higher Egg weight and also significantly (P<0.05) higher Surface Area than the Indigenous duck eggs. Shape Index and Air Cell depth were found to be non-significant. Internal egg quality traits such as Albumen Index, Haugh Unit and Yolk Index were significantly (P<0.01) higher in Indigenous duck eggs whereas Shell Thickness was significantly (P<0.05) higher in White Pekin duck eggs than Indigenous duck eggs. | en_US |
