Nestling daily growth rate (n = 592 nestlings) in relation to its rank and male home range size. The continuous lines represent the predicted nestling’s growth rate in relation to its hatching rank, and the shaded areas the 95% confidence intervals associated (from the model reported in Table 3). The red line represents the smallest (1.0 km2) and the blue line the biggest (19.8 km2) home ranges, respectively. This division was arbitrarily chosen to facilitate the visualisation of the result.
