Short summary
This study was carried out to compare conventional hatchery-hatching and on-farm-hatching systems in terms of hatching success and first-week chick performance for different broiler genotypes. There were no significant differences in the hatchability of fertile eggs and total embryonic mortality between the hatching or genotype groups. Hatching time was significantly influenced by the hatching system and genotype.
