OverviewAI-generated summary
Rosemary H. Whittle's research investigates animal behavior and welfare, with a particular focus on chickens in commercial farming contexts. Her work examines the physiological and behavioral responses of poultry to various environmental and management factors. She has published studies on the effects of commercial hatchery processing on stress responses in laying hens, and the impact of light wavelength on broiler performance and stress levels. Whittle also studies the influence of genetic strain, stocking density, and age on broiler behavior, as well as the effects of maternal omega-3 supplementation on chick behavior during social isolation. Her research also explores judgment bias, fear, and stress responses in different chicken breeds. Whittle collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Shawna Weimer, Victor J. Oyeniran, Sara Orlowski, and Seong Wook Kang, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications.
