The hypothesis is that the roosters will get to the feeding tray faster than the hens.

You will need three 1 month old roosters, three 1 month old hens, three 6 months old roosters, three 6 months old hens, a bag of chicken feed, an area that is fenced, a feeding tray, a log, two chicken cages, an assistant, and a stopwatch.

You will measure how long it takes for the chickens to reach their food. The distance between the cage and the chicken feed will remain constant.

The results showed that the roosters reached the food tray sooner than the hens. The 6 month old roosters and hens were also faster than the 1 month old chickens.

This science project is interesting because it compares the competitive nature of roosters and hens. It also shows how domestication of chickens has changed over time.

Consider testing ducks or turkeys instead of chickens. The experiment can also be repeated to compare chickens of different ages.

Hey there! Here are some awesome videos about this science project that we think you'll really like. They're not only super fun, but they'll also help you learn more about the science behind the project. So sit back, relax, and get ready to have some fun!!
