A linear mixed model with ‘nest’ as random factor was used. Stepwise model reduction was performed (lmerTest package Kuznetsova et al., 2016). In bold the significant P-value (P < 0.05) is indicated, N = 88 individuals. NumDF is nominator degrees of freedom, DenDF is denominator degrees of freedom, elim.num is the order in which a variable is removed from the model.
