The Effect of Stocking Density on Stress Reaction in Broiler Chickens during Summer (2008, background): “(10) indicated that changes in the nutrient status of food increased corticosterone concentration from 1.”
Major welfare issues in broiler breeders (2011, background): “…significantly increased and feeding motivation (by measuring rate of eating) was reduced as compared to broiler breeders fed a quantitative restricted diet, suggesting improved welfare due to reduced hunger in these birds (Sandilands et al., 2005; Tolkamp et al., 2005; Sandilands et al., 2006).”
