Selective breeding improves body weight and egg production in indigenous Tilili chicken in Ethiopia
1. This study evaluated body weight and egg production performance of Tilili indigenous chicken from different filial generations as a result of the selective breeding. 2. The base populations (G-0) were established from 3,400 one-day-old chicks, which were hatched from 12 500 eggs collected from r...
