This is a map of how the chickens dispersed over 6000 years.
The green area over Asia is where the chicken first was domesticated.
The blue arrows show people being to keep chickens over a larger area.
The red arrows show the chicken moving into Egypt and Europe (Please note there was 1500 years between these two, and this happened over hundreds of years not in one giant herd.)
The light blue area over Europe shows the roman empire and how far it brought chickens
And finally the pink arrows show where the chicken went during the age of exploration and colonial times.
Hope this helps!
