Weight loss between setting and transfer
at 19 d of eggs that hatched was 11.5% in eggs incubated
at 37.8ฐC EST and 12.4% in eggs incubated at 38.9%. Regression
analysis showed that BW and YFB decreased
with WL at a significant higher rate in chicks that hatched
after exposure to high EST compared with normal EST
(P < 0.05) and that RY was not affected at all by WL or
EST. There were no significant correlations between WL
and HT for BW, YFB, or RY (P > 0.05
