A total of 135 kampung chicken fertile eggs (weight 42-43 g) were used and divided into 5 treatment groups of three replications. They were placed in the semi-automatic incubator. The first group was without in-ovo feeding (negative control); the second group was in-ovo feeding of saline 0.9% (positive control); the 3, 4, and 5 groups were in-ovo feeding of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% L-Arginine, respectively. In-ovo feeding of L-Arginine were injected into albumen on day 10 of incubation period using automatic syringe in the narrow end side of egg by inserting needle through a small hole at 10 mm depth. After hatching, all day old chicks were placed in floor pens (1 x 0.5 x 0.5 m) accordance with the previous egg groups. ## Keywords - In ovo - Embryo - Arginine - Biology - Embryogenesis - Andrology - Animal science - Genetics - Amino acid - Medicine --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
