^a-eDifferent superscript lowercase letters within a column indicate significant interaction effects between strains and periods (P < 0.05).

^v-xDifferent superscript lowercase letters within a column indicate significant main effects of the periods (P < 0.05), irrespective of the strains.

When the main effect of the strain was significant, LB hens differed significantly from LSL hens (P < 0.05).

Data are given as LSmeans; n = 9 to 10 hens.

LB = Lohmann Brown-classic.

LSL = Lohmann LSL-classic.
