This experiment was conducted using 240 collected eggs, (120 eggs of local strain and 120 eggs of Canadian Ross strain) to compare some table eggs traits under Libyan conditions. Results indicated that Ross strain eggs were significantly higher (P<0.01) in egg size and weight, yolk weight, albumin weight and height, cortex thickness and weight and albumin percentage. Whereas, percentages of yolk, cortex and total cholesterol were decreased significantly (P<0.01) compared to local strain.
Results from the studied traits showed that Canadian Ross strain well adapted under Libyan conditions
