Sexagem embrionária de ovos férteis com a técnica de radiestesia

Abstract

Dowsing is a science that detects radiation from bodies due to its power of intuition and concentration and can impact on obtaining a targeted response. The objective of the work is to use the radiesthetic technique, with the use of a pendulum, to verify fertility and embryonic sexing in eggs. For the experiments 102 eggs were used and with the use of a pendulum, the evaluator performed the prospection to identify if the egg was fertile and which was the sex of the embryo, considering male or female. At the end of the evaluation, the eggs were placed in an automatic incubator for 21 days. After hatching, sexing was performed using the traditional feather method. Physical measurements such as egg weight, diameter and length were also carried out, to be used as a comparison and to seek relationships between males and females. The collected data were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis using the Microsoft Excel program. During the experiment, 4 eggs were contaminated and for this reason, of the 102 eggs initially reported, only 98 units were considered. The results of the evaluation of fertility of eggs, showed positive results, where of the 98 valid eggs, all were fertile and the average of correct answers was 97.62%. For confirmation and comparison of embryo sexing, only 73 chicks were used. In this evaluation, the results found were lower than in the fertility test, with an average of 48.40% of assertiveness. The birth weight showed a difference between the sex of the individuals, males had an average of 49.21 g and females had an average weight of 51.10 g. It is possible to conclude that the dowsing method can be used to assess fertility in eggs, where through dowsing it was possible to determine the fertility of eggs with a low amount of error by all evaluators. The alternative technique to determine sex in the embryonic period, needs further studies, improvement of the technique and preparation of evaluators, to ensure accuracy and precision of the technique and later evaluate its use at an industrial level.
