All chickens can be eaten; however, some breeds are bred to produce more meat and are raised primarily for meat production. Egg-laying breeds can also be eaten, but don't have much meat on them. Many farmers will eat egg-laying breeds (after the hen has slowed their laying) in soups or stews since the meat is often more tough.

Can you eat male chickens, and if so, what are some popular dishes or recipes that feature them?
Yes, you can eat male chickens, also known as roosters. Some popular dishes that feature rooster meat include coq au vin, a French dish where rooster is braised in red wine, and chicken curry, where rooster meat can be used as a substitute for chicken in traditional curry recipes. Rooster meat is often tougher and leaner than chicken meat, so it is commonly used in slow-cooked dishes to tenderize the meat.
Are only female chickens sold as meat in grocery stores?
No. Meat birds raised for broilers and fryers are both genders. They are slaughtered well before they mature so it makes no difference. There is no way to tell if you are purchasing a hen or a cockerel but it really makes no difference when they are that age.
