Brief Description: Not one, not two, but THREE french hens! Multiples! And chickens were once eggs? Or did they come before the eggs? ![]()
CHICKEN FACTS:
-
The Bresse chicken is seen as ‘the’ French breed, as it has blue legs, a white body and a red comb, the three colours of the French flag.
-
The oldest bones of a definite domestic chicken were found at Neolithic Ban Non Wat in central Thailand, and date to between 1,650 and 1,250 BC.
-
The largest recorded chicken, a rooster named Weirdo, reportedly weighed 10 kg (22 lb) in January 1973 and was so aggressive that he killed two cats and maimed a dog which ventured too close.
