Introduction
There are more chickens in the world than any other kind of bird. They are the staple of many farms, kept by farmers and country families alike. They are known as the “bird that gives birth every day” and have been around since ancient times.
Chickens were domesticated since long before we can remember. They are very important in many parts of the world for food and feathers, which help to keep us warm and comfy.
As a cheap way to have fresh eggs, chickens have grown more and more popular as pets. They also are not as vicious as geese, a similar animal that lays eggs and that humans use for food.
The chicken’s popularity will only grow in places like America and Canada as the allure of fresh eggs and having a unique pet catch people’s fancy. The chicken is already popular in other parts of the world.
The chicken comes in an astonishing amount of varieties, from bantams to naked necks to Cornish chickens. It has been a long time staple for the peoples of the world, and it will continue to be so long into the future.
