Flying saucers. Explains everything. I’m surprised he didn’t discuss the chocolate trade from South America to Egypt. But maybe the ancient Inca had hang gliders or something.

It was Polynesians. I know that the dna studies make that debatable, but maybe it’s from a chicken population that went extinct in Polynesia/Oceania, but persisted in S. America. Polynesians brought sweet potatoes the other direction. World’s largest (by area) nation!

May I direct your attention to Darwin's finches? Birds are dinosaurs, and a lot of different ones evolved to fill the same niche at different times. Then too:

The Chinese rocket chair guy who was using fireworks to reach the moon? He may have tested it on some chickens?

It's simply none of our business where those chickens came from, that's their business

i'm not a chicken genius but i think there's a pretty good amount of evidence they came over with polynesian peoples. like they say at the end that that's been debunked but imo its just that there's still some debate. Dr. Storey criticizes the study's methodology

The Polynesian Chickens theory seems pretty plausible to me. 🤷🏻‍♀️
