COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF EGG INTERNAL QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS OF SIX DIFFERENT POULTRY SPECIES
Abstract
The result indicated that issa brown chicken had the highest (32.97g) albumen weight mean while local chicken had the lowest (14.90g) albumen weight even though statistically similar with guinea fowl albumen weight. Noiler chicken eggs had the highest (55.2) albumen ratio while local chicken had the lowest (32.3) albumen ratio. Duck eggs had the highest (23.10g) yolk weight while local chicken eggs had the lowest (12.83g) yolk weight. Duck eggs had the highest (48.38mm) yolk length while local chicken eggs had the lowest (39.87mm) yolk length. Duck eggs had the (40.97%) yolk index while guinea fowl eggs had the lowest (30.10%) yolk index. Duck eggs had the highest (14.48mm) yolk thickness meanwhile local chicken eggs had the lowest (7.80mm) yolk thickness. Turkey had the highest (42.8) yolk ratio while noiler chicken had the lowest (25.7) yolk ratio. Local chicken eggs had the highest (79.34) haugh unit value while guinea fowl eggs had the lowest (59.42) haugh unit value.
