• The welfare of layer hens in cage and cage-free housing systems (2017, background): “Changes in the diet can cause stress and therefore induce severe feather pecking (Dixon and Nicol 2008; Lambton et al. 2010).”
• The prevention and control of feather pecking: application to commercial systems (2013, background): “Lambton et al. (2010) visited free-range flocks at 25 and 40 weeks of age and, in line with the results of cross-sectional and case-control studies, found that both GFP and SFP were associated with reduced range use.”
