open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Incubation is vital for avian embryo development but demands significant parental investment, potentially at the cost of self‐maintenance and immune function. For example, the acute phase response (APR), a systemic reaction against inflammation, infection or tissue injury, can trigger sickness behaviours such as reduced activity and foraging.
