A study on increasing the breeding rate of chicks with low-dosage stimulation

Abstract

During the years 1985 {approx} 1990, the semen of male fowl was irradiated by {beta}-rays, the survival time of the spermatozoa was prolonged and fertility increased by 2% to 5%. The breeding eggs of `Harbin White hen` were irradiated by {sup 60}Co {gamma}-rays to stimulate the growth of the blastoderm of fertilized eggs, the hatching rate increased by 6.86%, the healthy bird rate increased by 5.52%, and the chick weight increased by 5% to 6%. The egg production rate of the first irradiated generation hens increased by 8.03%, the first-egg age of the second irradiated generation hens shifted 6 to 7 weeks earlier and the egg production period prolonged. 72-week egg production was raised by 10.48%.
