“…Some of the studies reported no effect of lighted incubation on hatching performance of layer eggs ( Huth and Archer, 2015 ; Hannah et al 2020 ) but improved chick quality ( Huth and Archer, 2015 ) and synchronized hatching time ( Hannah et al 2020 ). Wang et al (2020) observed no change in hatchability from fertile eggs, but shorter hatching time in different layer strains with green lighted incubation as compared with the dark incubation. In our study, hatching performance was not affected significantly by incubation lighting even though a numerical improvement in hatchability was observed in the GREEN group.…”

“…Green light accelerated embryo development and earlier hatching in chickens [ 60 , 61 ]. Green light stimulated lowered hatching time in four layer breeds during embryogenesis [ 62 ]. Reproductive performance of White King pigeons was improved by blue (480 nm), red (660 nm), and green (540 nm) light stimulation for three months [ 63 ].…”

The goose is a popular poultry species, and in the past two decades the goose industry has become highly profitable across the globe. Ganders low reproductive performance remains a barrier to achieving high fertility and hatchability in subsequent flocks. To address the global demand for cheaper animal protein, various methodologies for improving avian (re)production should be explored. A large amount of literature is available on reproduction traits and techniques for commercial chicken breeder flocks, while research on improved reproduction in ganders has been carried out to a lesser extent. The present review aims to provide a comprehensive literature overview focusing on recent advancements/techniques used in improving gander reproductive efficacy in the context of ensuring a globally sustainable goose industry.

“…It appears that the impact of photo-incubation wavelength on post-hatch growth performance varies between species, breeds or strains. Wang et al (2020) , who experimented with layer breeder eggs reported an increase in 8–12 weeks body weight of Rhode Island Red photo-incubated with green LED in contrast to dark incubated, but these differences disappeared from 14 weeks, whereas body weights of other strains (Columbia Rock, White Leghorn, Barred rock) remained unchanged throughout regardless of the incubation treatment. Sabuncuoglu et al (2018) demonstrated that pre-hatch light colour (blue, green) does not influence the post-hatch bodyweight of quails throughout the rearing period.…”

“… Zhang et al (2016) noted that light colours (White LED, green LED-560 nm supplied at 30 lux) had no influence on hatchability or hatching weight as compared to dark incubation. Tong et al (2015) and Wang et al (2020) reported that green LED (522 nm, 520–525 nm) shortens hatch time over dark incubation. In contrast, no effect of incubation condition (green LED or darkness) was recorded on hatchability ( Zhang et al, 2016 ) hatching weight ( Tong et al, 2015 ; Zhang et al, 2016 ) and chick quality ( Tong et al, 2015 ).…”

Chicken Incubation Conditions: Role in Embryo Development, Physiology and Adaptation to the Post-Hatch Environment

The chicken hatching egg is a self-contained life-supporting system for the developing embryo. However, the post-hatch performance of birds depends on several factors, including the breeder management and age, egg storage conditions and duration before incubation, and the incubation conditions. Studies have determined the effect of incubation factors on chick post-hatch growth potential. Therefore, chick physical quality at hatch is receiving increasing attention. Indeed, although incubation temperature, humidity, turning and ventilation are widely investigated, the effects of several variables such as exposure of the embryo to high or low levels, time of exposure, the amplitude of variations and stage exposures on embryo development and post-hatch performance remain poorly understood. This review paper focuses on chick quality and post-hatch performance as affected by incubation conditions. Also, chick physical quality parameters are discussed in the context of the parameters for determining chick quality and the factors that may affect it. These include incubation factors such as relative humidity, temperature, turning requirements, ventilation, in ovo feeding and delay in feed access. All these factors affect chick embryo physiology and development trajectory and consequently the quality of the hatched chicks and post-hatch performance. The potential application of adapted incubation conditions for improvement of post-hatch performance up to slaughter age is also discussed. It is concluded that incubation conditions affect embryo parameters and consequently post-hatch growth differentially according to exposure time and stage of exposure. Therefore, classical physical conditions are required to improve hatchability, chick quality and post-hatch growth.
