The looks matter; aggression escalation from changes on phenotypic appearance in the domestic fowl.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2017

Campderrich Irene, Liste Guiomar, Estevez Inma

Abstract excerpt

Domestic fowl in small groups are assumed to establish hierarchical systems based on individual recognition. Conversely, interactions in large groups are modulated by badges of status. Previous studies suggested that birds differing in phenotypic appearance (PA) became targets for aggression, possibly mistaking altered PA for badges of status. We evaluated the impact of altering PA on 0, 30, 50, 70 or 100% of the...
