Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of in ovo injection of organic manganese (Mn) on the hatching traits and performance of broiler chickens.
Methods: A total of 320 eggs from the Ross 308 strain, with an average weight of 65 g, were used for the experiment. The birds were randomly divided into four groups: four negative control groups (no injection), one positive control group (in ovo injection of 0.272 mL of normal saline solution), Manganese I group (in ovo injection of 0.013 mg of organic Mn), and Manganese II group (in ovo injection of 0.026 mg of organic Mn).
Results: The injected treatments showed a significant decrease in the percentage of hatched chicks compared to the negative control group (P < 0.0001). Furthermore, the in ovo injection of Mn caused a significant increase in the final weight of the birds and their feed consumption (P < 0.0001). The experimental treatments also affected blood parameters, with blood triglyceride, cholesterol, and lipoproteins levels demonstrating a decrease compared to the negative and positive controls (P < 0.0001).
Conclusion: The in ovo injection of organic Mn showed favorable results in broiler chickens' performance indicators while showing no impact on immune response and microbial population.
