To compare whether birds' intake differed between 20 °C and 6 °C, we compared the data between day 8 (the last measure at 20 °C prior to the temperature manipulation) and day 22 (the last measure at 6 °C).

Adjustment for BMI, smoker years and bird intake did not further change the data.
Also body mass index (BMI), smoking years and bird intake might influence the serum POP levels [ 7].
Further adjustment for BMI, smoking year and bird intake did not change the pattern of associations of POPs and AhR-TEQ, AhRcomp (data not shown).
The birds' food intake was monitored daily and additional food was given when necessary.
We measured birds' dietary intake by weighing the amount of food (poultry diet and apple) that we gave to birds immediately following an experimental session and then reweighing the bowl and any remnants in the cage when we removed the bowl at the start of the food deprivation period for the following session on the next day.
Pairs of birds had lower intake rates in the slightly clumped distribution than in the other two distributions.
Taken together, these results suggest that initial body mass (and possibly also condition) affected the degree to which birds increased their intake of defended prey in response to changes in temperature.
Therefore the difference may be because our developmental treatment is likely to have altered perceptions of food uncertainty as opposed to birds' current energy intake requirement, as birds in our study were minimally food deprived (2 h) during trials and disadvantaged birds were equal in body mass and fatter than their advantaged siblings.
For the morning ME intake, all birds with high energy in the morning (E+P+/E−P−, E+P−/E−P+ and E+P0/E−P0) ate more energy compared with birds with lower levels on energy in the morning (E0P+/E0P− and E0P0/E0P0).
