Figure 1.
Behavioural activities (% of observations) of broilers receiving no larvae (Control), or provided with live larvae in different amounts (5 or 10% of the total dietary DM replaced with larvae, A5 and A10 respectively) and provisioning methods (scattered four or seven times a day, S4 and S7 respectively, or in tubes, called TB) scored in week 1–5. Foraging behaviour encompasses ground pecking, scratching, food running and interaction with tube. Activity encompasses all behaviours except resting and sitting while perching. Data presented as means ± SEM. Effects of Treatment (T), Week (W) and their interaction (T × W) are indicated as **p < 0.01 or ***p < 0.001. Different letters within 1 week indicate significant (p < 0.05, Tukey’s HSD correction) differences between treatments.
