Increased duration of laser environmental enrichment increased broiler physical activity and pen-wide movement without altering tibia measurements
Inactivity and leg disorders negatively impact broiler welfare. Enrichment designed to increase barn complexity may encourage physical exercise. The study aim was to implement a second-generation laser enrichment device, previously shown to increase broiler activity, for extended periods of time and...
