摘要

Technology on farms potentially brings the benefits of improved animal welfare and productivity as well as reduction in disease, waste and environmental impact. However, it also raises public concern about the welfare of individual animals, particularly when applied to large groups such as broiler (meat) chickens. We here address this issue by showing that camera technology can both provide life-long continuous monitoring of the welfare of whole flocks and also give crucial information about the individuals making up the flock. The cameras detect variation between individuals and are sensitive to birds moving abnormally. By testing samples of birds individually, we show that on average slow-moving birds came from flocks that moved slowly overall and showed large variation between individuals whereas on average fast-moving birds came from more active flocks that moved more uniformly. Properly used, camera technology can thus monitor the welfare of flocks continuously throughout their lives and is correlated with the behavior of individual birds.
