Abstract
Excessive grooming behavior has been well documented in various animals as a result of stress or intraventricularly administered ACTH and ACTH1-24. In the present study, handling, ACTH, and ACTH1-24 were associated with significant increases in preening of domestic chickens when compared to saline-treated controls. Naloxone-treated birds showed preening levels similar to those of unhandled and saline-treated birds.Entities:
