In some parts of the world, there are stories of the breeding of chickens. Ancient humans noticed wild fowl and started to domesticate them. People selected the chickens that laid more eggs or had more meat. Over time, through breeding, we now have a wide variety of chicken breeds. For instance, the Leghorn breed is famous for its high egg - laying capacity. Breeders would carefully choose which hens and roosters to mate to pass on desirable traits like better egg production, larger size, or resistance to certain diseases.
