Backyard chickens in the ready-to-sell compartment can transit into either the HT or TS compartments. All chickens collected in the HT compartments were then aggregated into the TT compartments. Finally, all chickens from the TS and TT compartments were slaughtered. The model was stochastically run for 1,000 simulations. All mathematical equations used for constructing the model are available in Online Resource 1.
