Abstract: | Accessing an outdoor range may affect broiler welfare. The degree of these effects is likely related to individual ranging behaviour. However little is known about the ranging behaviour of individual free-range broiler chickens or the effects of seasonal variation. This study investigated ranging patterns of ROSS 308 broiler chickens on a commercial free-range farm. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | ISAE 2016: 50th Congress of the International Society for Applied Ethology, Edinburgh, United Kingdom, 12th - 15th July, 2016 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the 50th Congress of the International Society for Applied Ethology, p. 152-152 | Publisher: | Wageningen Academic Publishers | Place of Publication: | Wageningen, Netherlands | Fields of Research (FoR) 2020: | 300306 Animal welfare | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2020: | 109902 Animal welfare 100411 Poultry |
