Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of eggs of quails in different packages and storage periods, under refrigeration. 360 Japanese quail eggs were collected, using a completely randomized design, in a 3x10 factorial scheme (packages x periods), stored in cardboard, polystyrene and plastic packages, in different storage periods, with 12 replications. There was an increase in weight loss as the storage period was prolonged. For HU values, specific gravity, albumen height and albumen and yolk pH, interaction between packaging and storage periods was observed. Quail eggs under refrigeration, stored in cardboard, Styrofoam and plastic packaging, remain in excellent quality for up to 45 days.
