The study aimed to evaluate the performance and egg quality of four genetic groups selected for meat production. Two hundred and eighty eight quails 42 days old were used. The experiment design was the completely randomized blocks with four treatments (genetic groups A, B, C and D) and six replicates of 12 birds each. In the first week, it was given 14 hours of light with increases of 30 minutes per week until it reached 17 hours of light. Egg […]

The study aimed to evaluate the performance and carcass yield of four quail genetic groups male and females. The birds were grown until 42 days old. A thousand and two hundred day old quails were distributed in a completely randomized design with four treatments (A, B, C and D) and five replicates of 60 birds each. The birds were weighed once a week in order to evaluate weight gain and feed consumption. Mortalities were recorded daily. At 42 days, ten […]
