According to Wikipedia's distrobution map, there are chickens (hens and roosters) in several African communities (mostly coastal) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:2004chicken.PNG Hens and roosters are kept primarily for agricultural purposes, and roosters (male chickens) are required to maintain a breeding population. Roosters can be aggressive and territorial, and so are usually kept in much lower quantities than hens since they do not produce eggs. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societiesis a 1997 book by Jared Diamond, and it includes an in-depth look at the spread of domesticated animals throughout the world. It describes why domesticated animals have a broader geographic range than wild animals, and provides some historical evidence as to when various animals, including chickens first appeared in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
