Chicken

A chicken is a young poultry of the subspecies Gallus gallus domesticus , high for its flesh.

Traditionally in France, the chicken is cut down between fifty and seventy days. The selection of the reproducers and the addition of substances activating the growth with the food produce animals whose growth is much faster than the normal.
