“…Njenga (2005) compared the growth of naked neck, frizzle, dwarf, and normal feathered birds from 1-day-old to wk 5, and found significantly higher ( P < 0.05) body weight in naked neck birds than all the other chicken genotypes. Similarly, Adomako et al (2014) observed that body weight and weight gain of naked neck birds was significantly higher ( P < 0.05) as compared to their normal feathered counterparts, suggesting that body weight and weight gain tend to vary among strains ( N'Dri et al, 2005 ; Santos et al, 2005 ; Chatterjee et al, 2007 ; Adekoya et al, 2013 ), varieties ( Khawaja et al, 2012 ; Jatoi et al, 2014 ; Alam et al, 2021 ), breeds ( Singh et al, 1999 ; Thakur et al, 2006 ; Adebambo et al, 2010 ; Oleforuh-Okoleh et al, 2017 ), and genotypes ( Faruque et al, 2007 ; Islam and Nishibori, 2009 ; Sharifi et al, 2010 ; Das et al, 2014b ; Batkowska et al, 2015 ). In contrast to these findings, Duah et al (2020) observed no significant differences ( P > 0.05) between the means of the live weights of the chicken with the three genotypes.…”
