The effect of the diet and feeding frequency on the feeding motivation of broiler breeder pullets by feeding day (mean ± SE). Feeding motivation is expressed as the feed intake for 20 min of ad libitum feeding relative to body weight during on-feed days (a) and off-feed days (B). Pullets on non-daily fed treatments were fed on the previous day during off-feed days and had their last meal 2 D prior to the test during on-feed days. Pullets on the daily-fed treatments (solid lines: the control in black and the alternative in gray) were both fed on the previous day. The effect of feeding strategies on the relative feed intake of broiler breeders varied based on age and feeding day (P = 0.03).
