The influence of feeding behaviour on growth performance, carcass and meat characteristics of growing pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study investigated the effect of the feeding behaviour on growth performance, and car- cass and meat characteristics of 96 barrows fed ad libitum or restrictively with high or low amino acids (AA) diets according to a 2 7 2 factorial design.

Validation of automatic monitoring of feeding behaviours in sheep and goats.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Monitoring the feeding and ruminating behaviour of ruminants can be used to assess their health and welfare. The MSR-jaw movement recording system (JAM-R) can automatically record the jaw movements of ruminants.

Courtship feeding, food sharing, or tolerated food theft among paired Red-crested Pochards (Netta rufina)? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Red-crested Pochards (Netta rufina) have been observed feeding on plants brought by their mates to the water surface, and this behaviour has been traditionally considered as courtship feeding.

A prospective study on the persistence of infant crying, sleeping and feeding problems and preschool behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Aim: To determine the persistence of regulatory problems (RP), i.e. excessive crying (>3 months of age), feeding and sleeping difficulties from infancy to preschool age, and to evaluate whether RP at 5 months are predictive of preschool adaptive ...
