Did you know....

• Today's domestic chicken most likely originated from Asia.
• In poultry markets, fowl commonly means a full-grown female bird.
• Young birds of both sexes, such as broilers and fryers, are called chickens.
• Male chickens raised on poultry farms are called cocks and/or roosters.
• Female chickens more than a year old are usually called hens.
• Females less than a year old are called pullets.
• Baby chickens of either sex are called chicks.
• Castrated males are called capons.
• A modern poultry farm may have several hundred thousand or even more than a million laying hens.
• They mainly have short wings that make them incapable of flying (unless it is across a very short distance)
• Laid head to claw, KFC chickens consumed worldwide would stretch some 275,094 miles.
• Roosters crow. Hens don't(they just cluck).
• Chickens are injected with hormones for juicier thighs and a meatier texture.
• Chickens will eat just about anything put in front of them.

or .... Cluck! Cluck! Bu-Cawk!!! (in English)
