Perch Positioning Affects both Laying Hen Locomotion and Forces Experienced at the Keel
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Keel bone fractures in laying hens can occur due to falls and collisions within the housing system, although other factors such as genetics and nutrition contribute to the high fracture prevalence found in commercial laying hens. In addition, routine behaviors such as dustbathing or...
