Two techniques for egg-shell treatment were evaluated for their effects on the quantity and variability of the fluid absorbed by turkey hatching eggs subjected to the temperature-differential method of egg dipping. The use of pin or drill to pierce a uniform hole through the shell and membrane(s) on the large end of each egg caused a significant increase in the quantity of dip solution absorbed. Variability in fluid uptake by the eggs also was reduced significantly. Utilization of dilute acid to remove cuticle completely from the whole egg surface or partially from either end also had similar effects. The techniques described also permit and effective dipping procedure that does not require the preheating step.
评估了两种蛋壳处理技术，以研究它们对采用温差法浸蛋的火鸡种蛋吸收液体的量和变异性的影响。用大头针或钻头在每个蛋的大头的蛋壳和内膜上钻出一个均匀的孔，会使吸收的浸液量显著增加。蛋吸收液体的变异性也显著降低。用稀酸完全去除整个蛋表面的角质层或部分去除两端的角质层也有类似效果。所述技术还允许采用一种有效的浸蛋程序，该程序不需要预热步骤。
