Geese are waterfowl belonging to the tribe Anserini of the family Anatidae.

This tribe comprises the genera Anser (the grey geese), Branta (the black geese) and Chen (the white geese).

Some other birds, mostly related to the shelducks, have "goose" as part of their names.

More distantly related members of the family Anatidae are swans, most of which are larger than true geese, and ducks, which are smaller.

The turkey is a large bird in the genus Meleagris, which is native to the Americas.

One species, Meleagris gallopavo (commonly known as the domestic turkey or wild turkey), is native to the forests of North America, from Mexico, throughout the midwest and eastern United States, and into southeastern Canada.

The other living species is Meleagris ocellata or the ocellated turkey, native to the forests of the Yucatán Peninsula.

Males of both turkey species have a distinctive fleshy wattle or protuberance that hangs from the top of the beak (called a snood).

They are among the largest birds in their ranges.

As in many galliformes, the male is larger and much more colorful than the female.

Duck is the common name for a large number of species in the waterfowl family Anatidae, which also includes swans and geese.

The ducks are divided among several subfamilies in the family Anatidae; they do not represent a monophyletic group (the group of all descendants of a single common ancestral species) but a form taxon, since swans and geese are not considered ducks.

Ducks are mostly aquatic birds, mostly smaller than the swans and geese, and may be found in both fresh water and sea water.

The chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a type of domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the red junglefowl.

It is one of the most common and widespread domestic animals, with a total population of more than 19 billion as of 2011.

Humans keep chickens primarily as a source of food, consuming both their meat and their eggs.

A hatchery is a facility where eggs are hatched under artificial conditions, especially those of fish or poultry.

It may be used for ex-situ conservation purposes, i.e. to breed rare or endangered species under controlled conditions; alternatively, it may be for economic reasons (i.e. to enhance food supplies or fishery resources).
