Do windows matter in poultry housing? What welfare and behavior tell us

Artificial light remains the industry standard in modern broiler production because it is highly controllable and can provide a consistent, uniform light source. While some studies demonstrate the benefits of artificial lighting, other research suggests that the same environment may negatively affect ocular and leg health.

Impacts of fear, anxiety and environment on fast- and slow-growing broilers

Research has uncovered much about how welfare impacts broilers’ physical and functional traits, but less is known about their mental state. A doctoral student at Virginia Tech studied fear and anxiety in fast- and slow-growing broilers, as well as the impact of environmental complexities.

Fast-growing broilers perform well in silvopasture and indoor production facilities
