The domestic chicken, Gallus gallus. You know that we use this animal extensively in agriculture, but you might not know that the domestic chicken is also a favourite of laboratory scientists. Humans have been fascinated by how baby chickens grow inside eggs for centuries. Opening chickens' eggs to peek at the developing embryo was a favourite pastime of Greek philosopher Aristotle. As well as being popular with developmental biologists, chicken eggs are essential for vaccine production.

Yellow coloured mug featuring an illustration of Gallus gallus and some facts about it.
