A chicken's lifecycle begins with a fertilized egg. A chick embryo develops insides it's shell for about 21 days.

Once the chick is fully developed, it breaks out of its eggshell using its egg tooth and emerges as a hatchling.

The newly hatched chick grows rapidly developing it's feathers.

As the chick grows, it transitions into a young chicken, eventually reaching puberty and becoming a pullet (female) or a cockerel (male).

Once a young chicken matures, it becomes an adult chicken. Females become hens and lay eggs and males become roosters.
