Dominiques are widely considered to be the first chicken breed introduced to America.
The Black Castilian breed has a long history and is thought to be one of the earliest domesticated chicken breeds in Europe.
The Dorking chicken breed is believed to be one of the earliest chicken breeds in Roman times.
And almost all chickens are known for being related to the first chicken breed to be domesticated was the Red Junglefowl, a wild bird native to Southeast Asia!

I love the chicken facts - had them when I grew up and didn't know some of these things! Came over from Juxta13 post. Really like the art too!

The Naked Neck is a breed of chicken that is naturally devoid of feathers on its neck and belly. The breed is also called the Transylvanian Naked Neck, as well as the Turken. The name "Turken" arose from the mistaken idea that the bird was a hybrid of a chicken and the domestic turkey! (It's not, I promise!)

The fluffiest chicken breed is generally considered the Silkie. Silkies are known for their soft, fluffy feathers that resemble fur, covering almost their entire body.
Silkie chicken feathers are primarily used for their soft, fluffy texture, making them suitable for various applications like stuffing pillows, diapers, and even upholstery padding. They can even be used in making fly's for fly fishing!

It was bred in the seventeenth century in K?chi Prefecture, on Shikoku island in southern Japan, and was designated a Japanese National Natural Treasure in 1952. It is one of the ancestors of the German Phoenix breed.

The Jersey Giant chicken was developed between 1870 and 1890 in New Jersey. You can probably guess from their name that these birds are pretty big. Roosters weight in at 13 pounds, and hens can easily grow up to 10 pounds. They are the largest purebred chicken breed.
