This study investigated the effects of supplementing laying hen's diet with vitamin A (5,000, 10,000 and 20,000 IU/kg) and trace minerals (Zn, Mn, Cu, Fe and Se) in inorganic and organic form on the carotenoid content and deposition efficiency in egg yolk. Hen's diet consisted of two commercial dent corn hybrids (soft- and hard-type), which differed in their carotenoid profile. The feeding trial was conducted with 252 Lohmann Brown hens allocated in 84 cages that were randomly assigned to 12 dietary treatments (2 hybrids × 3 vitamin A levels × 2 trace mineral forms).
