Fig. 5

Worm burden of laying hens experimentally infected with both Ascaridia galli (a) and Heterakis gallinarum (b), and the number of eggs per gram of faeces (EPG) (c) across different weeks post-infection (n = 108). Figures are LS means with their standard errors. The EPG was determined by wpi 4. Thus, the number of faecal samples for EPG was n = 90
