chickens

Capon: A castrated male used for meat. [How much could that yield?]
Pullet: A female chicken under one year old.
Hen: A female chicken over one year of age
Rooster: A male chicken over one year of age.
Raising Chickens for the first time can be intimidating. When I
first called the Feed Shop, I was trying to sound like a pro. I
asked, “Do you sell pullets?” “Yes”, the man replied. “Are they all
females?” It’s been an uphill battle ever since.
