Revealing the physical restrictions of caecal influx in broilers through the use of solid and soluble markers. Animal Nutrition 2025. This research aimed to contribute to optimising caecal fibre fermentation in broilers, which can improve broiler health and performance in a sustainable way. Therefore, the limitations of caecal influx in broilers were studied through three broiler trials in which the caecal development and the influx of solid and soluble markers as a function of age were followed up.
