In a study of this problem, both Leghorn and broiler-type hatching eggs were stored up to 28 days in plastic with nitrogen. The storage time did not affect the mortality of juvenile or adult birds, egg production, egg size, body weight, or shell strength. Thus, improved egg storage techniques not only increase hatchabil- ity, but also reduce or eliminate the adverse effects of less favorable storage conditions on the performance of birds hatched

Summary • A storage temperature of 16 to 17°C is recommended for eggs stored for 1 week, but a temperature of 11 to 12°C is better if the storage period extends beyond 1 week. 14.
