The temporal consistency of associations was investigated by sampling the same individuals over 3 time-scales: within chick rearing stages (short-term); between chick rearing stages (medium-term); and between clutches (long-term).The temporal consistency of associations was investigated by sampling the same individuals over 3 time-scales: within chick rearing stages (Short-term); between chick rearing stages (Medium-term); and between clutches (Long-term).
