Abstract: | The composition of gastrointestinal microbiota has been demonstrated to affect behaviour and vice versa (Neufeld et al., 2011; Berthoud, 2008). In free-range laying hens, the individual preference to range can lead to characteristic sub-populations of the flock (Hinch & Lee, 2011). The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of ranging behaviour on caecal microbiota in laying hens. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | APSS 2018: 29th Annual Australian Poultry Science Symposium, Sydney, Australia, 4th - 7th February, 2018 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Australian Poultry Science Symposium, v.29, p. 109-109 | Publisher: | University of Sydney | Place of Publication: | Sydney, Australia | ISSN: | 1034-6260 1034-3466 |
