Mengikut kegunaan utama

All chickens lay eggs, have edible meat, and possess a unique appearance. However, distinct breeds are the result of selective breeding to emphasize certain traits. Any breed may technically be used for general agricultural purposes, and all breeds are shown to some degree. But each chicken breed is known for a primary use.

Telur

Fail:Whitetufts.jpg
Araucanas are one of the only breeds to lay blue or green eggs, and can be recognized by their lack of tail and distinctive ear tufts
Many breeds were selected and are used primarily for producing eggs, these are mostly light-weight birds whose hens do not go broody often.

Daging

Some breeds are preferred for meat alone, though the commercial broiler market is currently monopolized by the Cornish-Rock (a hybrid of the Cornish and Plymouth Rock). Many smaller farms and homesteads use dual-purpose breeds for meat production.

Dual kegunaan

The Barred Plymouth Rock adalah antara baka dua-guna yang sangat popular
Secara umumnya baka-baka yang dipelihara di rumah di seluruh dunia sesuai bagi tujuan pengeluaran daging dan telur. Walaupun begitu, beberapa baka mungkin lebih condong ke arah salah satu dari kegunaan ini. Baka-baka dengan ciri sebegini biasanya dikenali sebagai baka "dua kegunaan"

Hiasan

Since the 19th century, poultry fancy, the breeding and competitive exhibition of poultry as a hobby, has grown to be a huge influence on chicken breeds. Many breeds have always been kept for ornamental purposes, and others have been shifted from their original use to become first and foremost exhibition fowl, even if they may retain some inherent utility. Since the sport of cockfighting has been outlawed in the developed world, most breeds first developed for this purpose, called game fowl, are now seen principally in the show ring rather than the cock pit.

Bantam

Sebright, seperti baka Sebright Emas adalah salah satu ayam Bantam yang popular
Kebanyakan baka ayam yang bersaiz besar mempunyai pasangan yang bersaiz miniatur yang dikenali sebagai katik atau bantam. Baka Bantam ini bersaiz satu per lima atau satu per empat dari baka aslinya, dengan ciri-ciri dan penampilan yang serupa dengan baka aslinya. Walaubagaimanapun Bantam asli tidak memiliki pasangan yang bersaiz besar. Baka bantam asli termasuk:

Baka kacukan

Many common strains of cross-bred chickens exist, but none breed true or are recognized by poultry breed standards. Thus, though they are extremely common in flocks focusing on high productivity, cross-breeds do not technically meet the definition of a breed. Most cross-breed strains are sex linked, allowing for easy chick sexing.
