Abstract
We evaluated feasibility of using force transducers linked to a data terminal to automatically monitor continuous feed-intake patterns of chickens. Cumulative feed intake and feeding activities were recorded for two adult males from populations divergently selected for juvenile body weight. The system provided automatic collection of data, ease in transcription from the terminal output, and results consistent with those previously obtained with other instrumentation.
