Information

  1. Classification: Hens and roosters belong to the chicken family (Phasianidae). The scientific name of the domestic hen is Gallus gallus domesticus.
  2. Breeding: Chickens were domesticated from wild birds in Southeast Asia more than 5,000 years ago and are raised for meat, eggs and as ornamental animals.
  3. Diversity: There are many breeds of hens that differ in size, feather color and characteristics.
  4. Reproduction: Roosters are brightly colored birds with a distinctive crest on their heads. Their main function in a flock is to fertilize hens and defend territory.
  5. Eggs: Hens lay eggs almost every day, although some breeds lay them less frequently. The color of the egg shell depends on the breed of hen.
  6. Diet: Hens are versatile foragers. They feed on seeds, insects, green plants and food scraps.
  7. Behavior: Hens are flocking birds. Under natural conditions, they live in small groups consisting of several hens and a rooster.
  8. Sounds: Roosters are known for their distinctive crowing, which serves to announce territory and announce a new day. Hens also communicate through various sounds.
  9. Rooster in culture: The rooster is a symbol of courage, vigilance and new beginnings in many cultures. In some traditions, it is also a symbol of goodness and fertility.
  10. Economic importance: Hens are one of the most important farmed birds in the world. They are a major source of protein for many people, and raising chickens is crucial to the global food industry.

Trivia

  1. Oldest breeding: Domestication of the domestic chicken took place in Southeast Asia about 8,000 years ago. It is descended from the red bankwa hen.
  2. Frothing without the sun: Contrary to popular belief, roosters can crow at various times of the day, not just at dawn. The crowing is a form of communication and territory marking.
  3. Egg color: The color of the egg shell often depends on the breed of hen, but it is interesting to note that the color of a hen's ear (the small part of the skin next to the eye) can indicate the color of the shell - hens with red ears usually lay brown eggs, while those with white ears lay white eggs.
  4. Sight: Hens have excellent eyesight and see more colors than humans, so they can spot predators from a distance.
  5. Communication in the egg: Chicks begin communicating with their mother, even before they hatch, through screeching sounds that the mother responds to.
  6. Thermoregulation: The comb on a rooster's head is not just a decoration. It helps with thermoregulation, draining excess heat from the bird's body.
  7. Rooster Dance: Roosters perform a specific dance around the hen to attract her attention. This is part of their mating behavior.
  8. The complexity of the foam: Research has shown that rooster crowing is more complex than previously thought. They can use different sounds depending on the situation.
  9. Headless hen: There is a story about a rooster named Mike, who survived 18 months after being decapitated in 1945 in the US. This was the result of an incomplete stitching procedure.
  10. Growth rate: Modern broilers (chickens raised for meat) are bred to grow as fast as possible. They can reach a suitable weight for slaughter in as little as 6-7 weeks.
