Abstract
The impacts of plumage colours of quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) on some hatching performance parameters for quails were reviewed in this study. Fertility (F), early stage deaths (ES) with last stage deaths + pipped but un-hatched (LS+PU) embryonic mortality and hatchability of fertile eggs (HFE) were studied hatching performance parameters. A total of 144 hatching eggs which were obtained from middle-aged (15 week) quail breeders with harlequin brown (original) and white plumages were used. Average values of quails having original and white plumage colours respectively were 73.11 % and 72.90 % for F, 4.44 % and 4.88 % for ES, 11.92 % and 6.29 % for LS + PU, 78.86 % and 80.20 % for HFE. As a result, it was seen that the hatching eggs obtained from quails having white plumage colour were numerically lower in F, higher in ES and higher HFE rates because of lower LPU in comparison to quails with harlequin brown plumage. The differences between the treatments were not found to be significant (P > 0.05), so it can be told that the plumage colour doesn’t affect studied hatching performance parameters. However, it is thought that continuation of studies including the rearing period will be beneficial for both academicians and quail producers.

Abstract
Bu araştırmada kuluçka performansına bıldırcınlarda (Coturnix coturnix japonica) tüy renginin etkisi incelenmiştir. Döllülük oranı (D), erken dönem (ED) ve son dönem + kabuğunu kırmış çıkamamış (SDEM + KKÇ) embriyo ölümleri ile çıkış gücü (ÇG) bu araştırmada incelenen kuluçka performansıyla ilgili özellikler olmuştur. Araştırmada orta yaşlı (15 hafta) orijinal (kırçıllı kahverengi) ve beyaz tüylü damızlık bıldırcınlardan elde edilen toplam 144 kuluçkalık yumurta kullanılmıştır. Orjinal ve beyaz tüylü bıldırcın yumurtaları için sırasıyla % 73.11 ve 72.90 D, % 4.44 ve % 4.88 ED, % 11.92 ve % 6.29 SDEM + KKÇ, % 78.86 ve % 80.20 ÇG değerleri elde edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak orjinal renkte tüylere sahip bıldırcınlara göre beyaz tüylülerden elde edilen kuluçkalık yumurtalarda rakamsal olarak D oranının biraz düşük, ED oranlarının biraz yüksek, buna karşılık LPU oranlarının biraz düşük ve buna bağlı olarak ÇG oranlarının da biraz daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Ancak muameleler arsındaki fark istatistik olarak önemli bulunmamış (P > 0.05) ve bıldırcınlarda tüy renginin denemede incelenen bu kuluçka parametrelerini önemli ölçüde etkilemediği tespit edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte konu ile ilgili yetiştirme dönemini de içine alacak çalışmalar düzenlenmesinin hem akademik hem de yetiştiricilik camiası açısından faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
