Judul: Production Performance and Physical Quality Characteristics of  Arab Chicken Eggs at Different Hen Age
Abstrak: Umur induk merupakan salah satu faktor utama yang dapat memengaruhi produktivitas dan kualitas telur yang dihasilkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis perbedaan performa produksi, kualitas fisik eksternal, dan kualitas fisik internal telur ayam arab yang dihasilkan oleh umur induk yang berbeda. Ayam yang digunakan pada penelitian ini berumur 61 minggu (P1) dan 87 minggu (P2). Performa produksi diamati selama satu minggu di kandang pemeliharaan. Telur dari masing-masing umur untuk menguji kualitas fisik eksternal dan internal sebanyak 30 butir. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa umur induk berpengaruh secara signifikan (P<0,05) terhadap feed conversion ratio (FCR), hen day production(HDP), hen house production (HHP), indeks bentuk telur, bobot kerabang, ketebalan kerabang, tinggi albumen, dan haugh unit. Ayam arab umur 61 minggu (P1) memiliki performa produksi dan kualitas fisik telur yang lebih baik dibanding ayam arab umur 87 minggu (P2).

Judul: Produksi dan Kualitas Telur Ayam Arab Umur 22-28 Minggu pada Suhu Kandang yang Berbeda
Abstrak: The production and quality of Arab chicken’s egg are influenced by the quality of parent stock, feed, and also environment. The aim of this research was to determine the production level, and egg quality of chicken’s egg from Arab chicken age 22-28 weeks at different level of temperatures. The experimental design used was completely randomized design (CRD) with three different level of temperatures as the treatment (netral, hot, and environment). The repetition was did 2 times. The results obtained at netral (24,7 oC), hot (27,9 oC), and environment (27,4 oC) temperatures were henday (43,6 ± 16,3 %; 39,3 ± 12,6 %; 26,3 ± 10,9 %), egg’s weight (37,60 ± 3,19 gram; 37,95 ± 3,20 gram; 37,83 ± 4,03 gram), egg’s shape index (0,79 ± 0,19; 0,78 ± 0,04; 0,78 ± 0,06), cleanliness (30,3 ± 31,7 %; 29,4 ± 26,0 %; 21,4 ± 30,4 %), eggshell’s weight (5,14 ± 0,51; 5,28 ± 0,53; 5,20 ± 0,65), eggshell’s thickness (0,29 ± 0,03; 0,30 ± 0,03; 0,30 ± 0,03), haugh unit of albumin (83,94 ± 7,96a; 84,05 ± 7,68a; 78,94 ± 9,09b), albumin’s weight (20,73 ± 2,53; 20,70 ± 2,35; 20,71 ± 2,50), indeks of yolk (0,46 ± 0,04; 0,45 ± 0,03; 0,45 ± 0,04), yolk’s weight (10,78 ± 1,84; 10,83 ± 1,34; 11,13 ± 1,80), and the colour of yolk (6-10; 4-10; 5-10).
