In this study, the effects of feeding citrus byproduct on physicochemical and sensory characteristics of chicken meats were investigated. The samples consisted of chicken meats provided with only feed for laying hen without citrus byproduct (T-0), and the chicken meats fed with 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% citrus byproduct during the starter (initial period feed; 1~9th day), the grower (middle period feed; 10~24th day), and the finisher (latter period feed; 25~36th day), respectively. The L* value of thigh was significantly lower in the T-1 than in the T-0, the a* value was significantly higher in the T-1 than in the T-0 (p less than 0.05). The water holding capacity of thigh was significantly higher in the T-1 than in the T-0 and the cooking loss was significantly higher in the T-0 than in the T-1 (p less than 0.05). The acid value was significantly higher in the T-0 than in the T-1 (p less than 0.05). Antioxidant activity was higher in the T1 than in the T-0 (p less than 0.05). There was no significance between T-0 and T-1 regardless of feeding citrus byproduct, in terms of chicken's b* value, frozen loss, thawing loss, hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, shear force, free amino acid content of hot water extracts, taste, flavor, tenderness, juiciness and palatability.
