Almost none. The food is given at a controlled pace. Each day, the hours of light is computer controlled. If the lights are on, the chickens eat. Lights off, they sit down and sleep. They are not allowed to gain weight at a rate faster than the bones can support it . Every aspect of their life is computer controlled. Temperature, hours of light, air exchange in the building and the static pressure in the building.
