dc.description.abstractThis study was carried out to compare indices of production and egg quality of two strains of laying hens (Lohmann Brown and Atak-S) housed in furnished cages. Lohmann Brown (LB) and Atak-S (AS) hens were housed in furnished cages (n= 700; 14 cages; 25 hens per cage; floor space 600 cm2/hen) from 18 to 50 wk. Furnished cages included nests, perches and sandbathes. The hen day egg production, feed intake and egg weight of LB hens were higher than AS hens at week 40 and 50 (P<0.05). The AS had a significantly higher body weight (2074.1 g and 1900.2 g respectively) and lower mortality rate (7.1% and 12.7 % respectively); than LB hen at week 50 (P<0.05). However, no significant differences on egg quality parameters were noticed between LB and AS hens throughout the experiment (P > 0.05). In conclusion, our results showed that strain selection is important for productivity of laying hens rearing in furnished cages. Furthermore it can be concluded that performance of LB hens was better than AS hens in furnished cages.en_US
