Chicken
The chicken (Gallus gallus, sometimes G. gallus domesticus) is a domesticated fowl. The hen is a female chicken, a rooster is a male chicken. The chick is a baby chicken.
The chicken is one of the most common and widespread domestic animals. With a population of more than 24 billion in 2003, there are more chickens in the world than any other bird. Humans keep chickens primarily as a source of food, consuming both their meat and their eggs.
Some genetic research has suggested that the bird likely descended from both Red and the Grey Junglefowl. Chickens are omnivores. In the wild, they often scratch at the soil to search for seeds, insects and even larger animals such as lizards or young mice.
Chickens in nature may live for five to eleven years depending on the breed.
Domestic chickens are not capable of long distance flight, although lighter birds are generally capable of flying for short distances, such as over fences or into trees (where they would naturally roost).

Identify this bird
This type of bird is one of the most common kind of bird there is. I am also called a cock or chanticleer (Gallus gallus), the female has another very common name. Immature males of my type of less than a year’s age are called cockerels. I am a polygamous bird. I am only one bird, however, and cannot easily guard several nests of eggs at once. I will guard the general area where my flock is nesting, and will attack other males of my type who enter my territory. During the daytime, I often sit on a high perch, usually several feet off the ground, to serve as a lookout for my flock. I will sound a distinctive alarm call if predators are nearby.
