1. IntroductionThe poultry diet is balanced for metabolizable energy and protein through the incorpo ration of several ingredients and additives. The cost of many cereal grains and legumes used in making poultry feed is increasing due to the growing markets utilizing them as food and fuel [1]. To counter this, alternative feedstuffs such as agricultural co-products, including wheat middlings, soy ...

1. IntroductionThe anti-predator behavior of roosting on the elevated structure shown by the ancestor of the domestic fowl (jungle fowl) has been seen in domesticated avian species even after they were reared in the indoor housing system [1,2]. The avian species, including the domestic fowl, exhibit the tendon-locking phenomenon, which allows them to express behaviors such as perching with minimal ...

1. IntroductionIntense genetic selection, combined with an effective feeding program and efficient rearing management greatly improved productivity and efficiency of broiler production [1]. Despite the low genetic variation and well-controlled rearing environment in modern broiler production, there can still be noticeable variations in body weight (BW) within a flock [2]. Ideally, broiler producti ...

IntroductionWhereas modern broilers have low genetic variation and wellcontrolled rearing environment, there are still high variations in BW within a flock (Lundberg et al., 2021). While uniformity is a universal issue in poultry production, there are still no cost-effective interventions other than culling heavy and small birds to improve uniformity within a broiler flock (Choi et al., 2026). Poo ...
