Short summary
The effects of hypoxia at increased altitude levels on the cardio-respiratory development of broiler embryos are distinct in comparison with those at sea level. The study aim was to investigate the effects of high incubation temperature and oxygen supplementation during hypoxic high altitude at different embryonic stages of developmental and physiological traits of embryos and hatching performance of embryonated hatching eggs in broilers. A total of 1280 eggs obtained from broilers.
