Abstract

This article presents a comprehensive dataset featuring ten distinct hen breeds, sourced from various regions, capturing the unique characteristics and traits of each breed. The dataset encompasses Bielefeld, Blackorpington, Brahma, Buckeye, Fayoumi, Leghorn, Newhampshire, Plymouthrock, Sussex, and Turken breeds, offering a diverse representation of poultry commonly bred worldwide. A total of 1010 original JPG images were meticulously collected, showcasing the physical attributes, feather patterns, and distinctive features of each hen breed. These images were subsequently standardized, resized, and converted to PNG format for consistency within the dataset. The compilation, although unevenly distributed across the breeds, provides a rich resource, serving as a foundation for research and applications in poultry science, genetics, and agricultural studies. This dataset holds significant potential to contribute to various fields by enabling the exploration and analysis of unique characteristics and genetic traits across different hen breeds, thereby supporting advancements in poultry breeding, farming, and genetic research.
