Food consumption per day during the first two weeks after weaning in male offspring, expressed as grams/ kilogram body weight/day. Food consumption was measured three times a week across weeks 3–4 and weeks 4–5. Males from the same litter were housed in together. Calculations are based on the total weight of food consumed divided by the number of animals per cage, and then adjusted per average kg body weight of the animals. N = the number of litters examined. Values are mean ± SEM.
