Chickens are not native to [[Roshar]], but were brought to the planet during the initial human migration from [[Ashyn]].{{wob ref|12228}} They live mainly in [[Shinovar]], with very few found further east and no undomesticated ones as far as [[Alethkar]].{{wob ref|5818}} This being said, wild chickens can be found in the East - for instance, geese live in the [[Horneater Peaks]], and [[Dalinar]] sees chickens during his visit to the [[Valley]].{{wob ref|8891}}
