This presentation offers a global vision of the turkey hatching egg production process, from rearing the breeders to hatching the poults in the hatchery. The special characteristics of the production will be discussed, including the artificial insemination process, as well as the collection, storage and incubation of the eggs. It will also touch on the unique challenges associated with turkey hatching, that are different from hatching chicken.
