Manipulation of the phenotypic appearance of individuals in groups of laying hens: effects on stress and immune-related variables.

Stress (Amsterdam, Netherlands) - 1 Jan 2015

Nazar F N, Marin R H, Liste G, Campderrich I, Estevez I

Abstract excerpt

This study evaluated whether phenotypic appearance (PA) alteration during two developmental phases in laying hens, reared in two different group sizes, affects stress and immune responses. After hatching, 750 chicks were randomly assigned to 30 pens at a group size of either 10 or 40 birds. Then, the appearance of 0, 30, 50, 70 or 100% of the chicks in each pen was altered by blackdyeing their head feathers...
