Static stiffness of an eggshell refers to the eggshell’s ability to resist deformation or compression when subjected to a steady, applied force. It measures how rigid or firm the eggshell is and indicates the shell’s structural strength.

👉 After administering Poulsil between 22 and 30 weeks of age, the broiler breeder flock’s treatment group in Belgium showed a significantly greater static stiffness of eggshell compared to the control group.
