HE current study aimed to investigate the effect of successive short bursts of warming for 0, 5, and 10h (SPIDES) during egg storage periods (7 and 14 days) on the hatchability %, chick's quality and post-hatching bird's performance among two chicken breeds, Fayoumi and Avian-34. Accordingly, 6300 fertilized eggs (3150 eggs from each breed) were randomly distributed in to 2x2x3 experimental design (2 breeds, 2 storage periods, & 3 warming times) with 5 replicates/ treatment. Eggs' warming was frequently repeated every 3 days for 0, 5, and 10h (SPIDES). The main findings indicated significant reductions of egg weights and increases of egg weight losses with the increase of egg storage and the warming times during storage. The highest egg weight losses were reported for Fayoumi's eggs stored for 7-or 14-days and exposed to frequent SPIDES for 10h as well as Avian-34's eggs stored for 7-days and warmed for 10h. Marked improvements of hatchability % in both Fayoumi, and Avian-34 breeds were recorded following the exposure to frequent SPIDES for 0 and 5h. Additionally, distinct enhancements of post-hatching performance were reported. Chicks hatched from eggs stored for longer periods and exposed to SPIDES possessed less post-hatching weights (W0) in Avian-34 and Fayoumi compared to those directly incubated without warming during storage. However, those chicks succeeded to attain significant heavier body weights at 35 days old. The best post-hatching growth performance was reported for chicks hatched from eggs exposed to 5h of successive warming every three days during storage.

“…In the poultry production sector, producing highquality chicks with a subsequent good post-hatching performance is of an integral concern to producers [1]. This, in turn, requires a fine balance between various management practices in hatcheries including the storage of fertilized eggs [2].…”

“…Preincubation storage of chicken eggs is unavoidable. Yet, storing eggs longer than 7 days has been shown to impact negatively the quality of eggs, embryo development, hatching rate and chick quality (Adriaensen et al, 2022; Bilalissi et al, 2022; Guinebretière et al, 2022). Previous studies had shown that quality traits in eggs and hatching characteristics, such as hatchability, chick weight and length deteriorate as eggs age in storage (Addo et al, 2018; Khan et al, 2014; Tona et al, 2003, 2004).…”

“…Negative effects of long‐time storage of eggs include reduced chick weight, length and quality (Addo et al, 2018). These parameters are important for the viability of the chicks and may relate to the post‐hatch performance of birds (Bilalissi et al, 2022; Senbeta, 2016; Tona et al, 2004).…”

Effects of egg storage length and orientation on hatching traits and spread of hatch were determined in Transylvanian naked neck chickens. Eggs (n = 640) stored in a cold room (16 ± 1.5°C, 75 ± 1.5% RH) in batches of 160 eggs each, for 1, 3, 5 or 7 days were used.Half of each batch was stored with a broad end up (BEU) and the other in a narrow end up (NEU). Eggs were incubated in a two-stage incubator (37.5°C, 64% RH). Storage length caused a significant increase in egg weight loss (EWL; p < 0.001). Egg fertility (FERT) was significantly lower in 7 days than in 1, 3 and 5 days stored eggs (p < 0001). Dead in shell (DIS) was lower (p < 0.001) in 1-day storage than in other lengths (p < 0.001). Hatchability of total (HSE) and fertile eggs (HFE) decreased (p > 0.001) gradually from 1 to 7 days, though 3 and 5 days were found to be similar. Hatching commenced earlier (p = 0.055) in 5 days than 1-day storage. Incubation time at 100% hatch, hatch window and spread of hatch were not (p > 0.05) affected by storage length. At the end of the hatch, longer storage than 1 day caused 45, 45 and 15 min/day delay in hatching for 3, 5 and 7 days storage respectively. The chicks from 3 days storage (17.3 cm) were longer (p = 0.05) than those from 5 (17.1 cm) and 7 days groups (17.1 cm). Higher DIG and DIS but lower HSE and HFE (p < 0.05) were recorded in BEU than in NEU orientation. Earlier commencement of hatch (CH) was recorded in BEU than in NEU eggs. There were significant (p < 0.05) interactions between storage length and orientation in FERT, DIG, HSE, HFE, CH and hatch windows. To achieve HFE up to 70%, eggs could be stored for up to 7 days in NUE orientation but should not exceed 3 days in BEU orientation.
