The FUNAAB-Alpha chicken, a dual-purpose genotype developed by the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), represents an improved local breed with enhanced adaptability and productivity under tropical conditions. Despite its relative heat tolerance compared to exotic breeds, the FUNAAB-Alpha chicken remains susceptible to acute thermal challenges that may disrupt its physiological balance and limit its productive efficiency. The chickens of three strains (normal feather, frizzle feather and naked neck) were offered citrus peel powder in water at the rate of 0, 3, 6 and 9g per litre drinking water before being subjected to acute heat challenge. The null hypothesis (H0) is that citrus peel powder at varied dosage does not change the body temperature and haematological responses in FUNAAB alpha chickens during acute heat challenge while H1 means citrus peel powder at varied dosage does change the responses.
