The Needle Bore Diameter for In Ovo Amino Acid Injection Has no Effect on Hatching Performance in Broiler Breeder Eggs

The objective of this study was to determine if the bore diameter of needles used for in ovo injection of amino acids (AA) would affect subsequent chick hatchability. In Experiment 1, needles of different bore diameter were inserted into the egg. In Experiment 2, needles of different bore diameter w...
