Popis: The paper reports that the treatment of hatching turkey eggs with a mixture composed of colamine, succinic acid, serine, and pyridoxine hydrochloride increased the viability of embryos and reduced incubation wastes. This effect allowed increasing the hatching of turkey poults by 6.73% and the hatchability of eggs, by 4.43%. At the same time, a statistically significant decrease in the key lipid peroxidation products in one-day-old turkey poults was observed. In particular, the content of isolated double bonds decreased 1.47-fold (p < 0.01); diene conjugates, 1.67-fold (p < 0.01); triene conjugates, 1.46-fold (p < 0.05); oxidiene conjugates, 1.48-fold (p < 0.01); and Schiff bases, 1.3-fold compared to the control. All the above-mentioned positively affected survivability in the experimental group, which appeared to be increased by 1% compared to the control.
