IIRC chickens were a relatively modern addition to human agriculture. For actual caveman livestock you should be keeping snails.

I do like saltwater snails. Don't know about the French wineyard type, but I guess they're OK as well.

No joke, I used to be a snail rancher. If not for keeping up appearances, our tanks could have been filthy and cranked 'em out.

Fun fact: archaeological evidence of snail farming (heliciculture) dates back to the Mesolithic period, around 10,000 years ago! The Romans later industrialized it and built special enclosures called cochlearia where they'd fatten snails on milk and spelt flour before eating them.
