Analysis of severe feather pecking behavior in a high feather pecking selection line.

Poultry science - 1 Oct 2009

Abstract excerpt

Even though feather pecking (FP) in laying hens has been extensively studied, a good solution to prevent chickens from this behavior under commercial circumstances has not been found. Selection against FP behavior is possible, but for a more effective selection across different populations, it is necessary to characterize the genetic mechanism associated with this behavior. In this study, we use a high FP...
