Incubation Conditions and Broiler Performance
However, the 21 days that the chick spends in the incubator is significant proportion of its life; for a broiler killed at 40 days, 34 % of its total life span is spent in the egg. Recent research has shown that aspects of incubation and hatchery process control can have profound effects on broiler performance all the way up to slaughter weights. Often, small changes will generate significant i...
متن کاملHousing and husbandry conditions affect stereotypic behaviour in laboratory gerbils.
An artificial burrow was developed which fits into standard laboratory cages and significantly reduces stereotypic digging in gerbils. Also, the causes of bar-chewing were assessed experimentally. Neither the lack of gnawing material, nor the spatial proximity of cage-lid bars and food in the hopper nor the routine husbandry procedure of transferring juvenile gerbils to a fresh cage, but premat...
متن کاملOligosaccharides Affect Performance and Gut Development of Broiler Chickens
The effects of oligosaccharide supplementation on the growth performance, flock uniformity and GIT development of broiler chickens were investigated. Four diets, one negative control, one positive control supplemented with zinc-bacitracin, and two test diets supplemented with mannoligosaccharide (MOS) and fructooligosaccharide (FOS), were used for the experiment. Birds given MOS or FOS had impr...
متن کاملDo Housing Bubbles Affect Consumption?
Standard optimzing models of consumption postulate that consumption is a function of wealth and implicitly assume that wealth is comprised of assets whose market price coincides with the fundamental price, defined as the expected present value of future dividends. We use a simple theoretical framework to show that when the market price deviates from the fundamental price, consumption behavior w...
متن کاملSanitary housing conditions modify the performance and behavioural response of weaned pigs to feed- and housing-related stressors.
Pigs are confronted with changes in farming practices that may affect performance and animal well-being. The sanitary conditions of the farm can have an impact on the ability of pigs to adapt to these changes. This study aimed to analyse how weaned pigs respond to common farming practices of changes in diet and housing in terms of performance, health and behaviour, and how these responses are a...
