The birds were reared and kept for production for human consumption according to national law and guidelines, and not for experimental purposes. They did not undergo any experimental procedures and were only monitored by non-invasive clinical scoring and behavioural observations. The observational protocol was approved by the Designated Veterinarian for Institutional Animal Care at the University of Kassel.
