A novel flexible method to split feeding behaviour into bouts
Howie, J. A.; Tolkamp, B. J.; Avendano, S.; Kyriazakis, I. (2009)Before meal patterns can be analysed properly, a biologically relevant meal criterion must be determined in order to group short-term feeding behaviour into meals. Existing methodologies are based on modelling of the ... -
Short-term feeding behaviour has a similar structure in broilers, turkeys and ducks
Bley, T.; Kyriazakis, I.; Howie, J. A.; Tolkamp, B. J. (2010)1. This study is the first to quantitatively compare the structure of feeding behaviour of broilers, ducks and turkeys as recorded by electronic feeders. It tests the hypothesis that this structure is so similar that the ... -
The structure of feeding behavior in commercial broiler lines selected for different growth rates
Howie, J. A.; Tolkamp, B. J.; Avendano, S.; Kyriazakis, I. (2009)Selection for increased growth rate in livestock is accompanied by increased requirements for food resources. It has been suggested that more intensively selected birds, such as broilers, have altered food intake control ...
