Chicken meat production worldwide by country 2023 | Statista
Apr 13, 2023

In 2021 there were 25.8 billion chickens worldwide, up from 14.38 billion chickens in 2000. Per capita consumption of broiler meat in the United States amounted to about 96.9 pounds in 2022,...

The average global population of ALL mature birds (excluding chickens) is estimated to be somewhat less than 90 billion (actually, somewhere between 40 and 130 billion; this too is a rough estimate). The total population including younglings is somewhat higher during the breeding season of each species.
