IF my reading of HISTORY is correct, the FIRST chickens brought by the colonists from England were brought to Jamestown, Virginia.
THERE they were raised and bred with the SOLE purpose of making them as BIG and TASTY as the native Turkeys.
This project was a FAILURE (insofar as the chicken-breeding was concerned.).
BECAUSE of this "failure", the ORIGINAL CHICKEN BREED was called:
SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN
This nomenclature was later modified by a "Colonel Sanders"...and is NOW referred to as : Kentucky Fried Chicken.
hope this helps,
