Abstract

The present experiment was conducted to observe the quality of table eggs collected from three different housing systems, including conventional cage systems, floor space-free ranges, and limited floor space systems, at Mr. Janazaib Arain farm in Nasarpur, Sindh. In this experiment, the Playmouth chicken breed was kept under the housing system. It was observed that the various table egg quality characteristics-egg weight, eggshell cleanness, eggshell hardness, breaking strength, shape index, egg yolk color, and egg albumin height were significantly higher (P<0.05) in the cage system as compared with free range, limited, and free floor space. The result for egg mass was also found to be significantly higher in the cage housing system as compared with other housing systems. It was concluded that a better-quality table egg with a higher egg weight, a hard eggshell, and other internal quality characteristics can be produced in the cage housing system from Playmuoth Rock chickens.
