Abstract
Methods
dataChickID_toPublish20200223.csv: dataset containing the information about each chick.
dataParentsID.csv: dataset containing information about adults (parents).
dataQ.csv: dataset of observed feeding visits/events identified in the videos, including information of attendees and the occurrence of begging behaviour.
Event_All_Count.csv: dataset of observed feeding visits where parents fed non-offspring. This dataset was created by transforming “dataQ.csv” based on $EventID and the relationship of fed chicks (i.e. “unrelated” to the focal adult, $AdultID).
massChecksChicksCross-foster.csv: dataset for chick ID, body mass, and age (i.e. days old).
2018_AX_prebreedingMtx.RData: data on social interactions in each of the aviaries (1 to 4) during the pre-breeding period. These data were collected via an automated tracking system, 8-megapixel Camera Module V2 (RS Components Ltd and Allied Electronics Inc.) controlled by a Raspberry Pi3 Model B (Raspberry Pi Foundation), and individuals were identified by a backpack containing a 2D-tag (see Alarcón-Nieto et al 2018).
Usage Notes
Adult_towards_potential EPoffspring.R: Code to report the numbers of feeding visits/events where adults feed to potential extra-pair offspring.
Figure1a_Chick_masses.R: Code for the relationship between age of chick and body weight.
Figure3a_Adult_towards_OwnSocialOffspring.R: Code for testing (1) whether parents selectively fed their own social offspring or not and (2) whether social offspring begged more towards social parents or not.
Figure3b_Adult_towards_GeneticOffspring.R: Code for testing (1) whether parents selectively fed their own genetic offspring or not and (2) whether genetic offspring begged more towards genetic parents or not.
Figure4a_Adult_towards_Under-developedNonOffspring.R: Code for testing whether parents selectively fed non-offspring based on their developmental stages.
Figure4b_Adult_towards_BeggingNonOffspring: Code for testing whether parents selectively fed begging non-offspring or not.
SupplInfoSec15_MantelTest_AviaryX.R: Code for testing whether adults in each aviary (1 to 4) selectively fed offspring of close social associates or not.
