Summary

[edit]
Description

All the different breeds of chickens today can trace their origins back to the Red Jungle Fowl of East Asia.

Through generations of genetic seleciton, specialized breeds have been developed for meat (broilers) and eggs (layer). There are also dual-purpose breeds that are reasonably good in both meat and egg production, but not as good as the specialized breeds. There are also breeds develop strictly for exhibition.
