An experiment was designed to determine the effect of perinatal administration of amino acids on
hatchability, growth performance and gastrointestinal tract development of broiler chicks. Two hundred
and ninety eight uniform sized Cobb broiler eggs were set for incubation. The fertile eggs were divided
into two groups, one group without any injection and the other group was administered in ovo with
amino acid solution containing arginine (22 mg), glutamine (25 mg) and threonine (30 mg) per egg on
day 18 of incubation into the amniotic cavity. After hatching, the chicks (n=240) were further divided
into four groups (6 replicates with 10 chicks in each replicate), namely, Group I: without in ovo and
without post hatch supplemented diet (WoINOVO-WoPHS); Group II: without in ovo and with post
hatch supplemented diet (25% higher level of lysine, 1.68 mg, methionine,0.63 mg andthreonine,0.99
mg) (WoINOVO-WPHS); Group III: within ovo and without post hatch supplemented diet (WINOVOWoPHS);
Group IV: within ovo and with post hatch supplemented diet (WINOVO-WPHS). The results
indicated that in ovo administration of amino acids did not show any significant difference in both
hatchability and chick weight. Live weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio during 0-3 wk,
3-5 wk and overall phase were not affected (P>005) by either in ovo supplementation and post hatch
supplemented diet or their interaction. In ovo supplementation significantly (P
