This research aims to identify an effective semen cryopreservation protocol for the restricted ovulatory leghorn chicken.
Semen treated with permeable and non-permeable cryoprotectant agents at varying concentrations.
Evaluated motility, membrane integrity, fertility, and hatchability post-thawing.
The optimal treatment involved 8% dimethylformamide combined with 50 mM trehalose.
DMF 8% + trehalose 50 mM achieved 53.2% total motility and 29.1% progressive motility.
Candled fertility was significantly higher (57%, P < 0.001) compared to DMF 8% alone.
Hatchability (92%) was comparable to fresh-extended control measurements.
