- Selection method and early-life history affect behavioural development, feather pecking and cannibalism in laying hens: A review (2008, background): “Both forms of gentle feather pecking seem to be separate forms of pecking behaviour and do not seem to develop into severe feather pecking (Rodenburg et al., 2004b; Newberry et al., 2007).”
- Use of space in the domestic fowl: separating the effects of enclosure size, group size and density (2008, background): “Unlike laying hen strains, which make greater use of the third dimension of space (Newberry et al. 2007), broilers have more simplistic bidimensional movement patterns, which made them a more suitable animal model for this kind of study.”
- Predicting feather damage in laying hens during the laying period. Is it the past or is it the present (2014, background): “Outbreaks occur mostly during the 56 laying period (Newberry et al., 2007; Bright, 2009) but SFP and consequent damage can develop 57 already at an early age (Blokhuis and van der Haar, 1992; Johnsen et al., 1998; Riedstra and 58 Groothuis, 2002; de Haas et al., 2014).”
- What’s in a peck? Using fixed action pattern morphology to identify the motivational basis of abnormal feather-pecking behaviour. (2008, background): “Furthermore, severe feather pecks are harmful to other birds and thus are a welfare concern, whereas gentle feather pecks are positively associated with preening in chickens; that is, as the incidence of gentle feather pecks increases, so does the amount of preening (Newberry et al. 2007), and gentl”
