| Abstract | ||
| Three local chicken strains were used in a crossbreeding program (first phase) that was maintained at the Poultry Research farm, Fac. of Agriculture, Menoufia Univ. during the seasons 2018-2020. Then, the second phase was carried out during the seasons 2020-2023 between the chosen genetic groups (plan of mating: Figure 1). The first generation was obtained during the season 2021-2022. In the second phase (recent study), 7 genetic groups (Sinai strain, Gimmizah strain and Silver Montazah strain, GSSM, MSSG, SGMS, and SMGS crosses) were tested. The three parental strains of Sinai, Gimmizah, and Silver Montazah were reared till 90 days of egg production (all traits were recorded), then were crossed-mated (plane of mating) to obtain crosses and reciprocals. | ||
