Later exposure to perches and nests reduces individual hens' occupancy of vertical space in an aviary and increases force of falls at night
Tiered aviaries are intended to improve laying hen welfare by providing resources that enable them to perform essential behaviors. However, hens must be able to navigate these complex systems efficiently and safely. This study investigated the influence of providing perches and nests starting at 17...
