is a chicken a bird? coz dont birds fly and chickens dont coz their too fat?

Answer 1

Maybe it's a frog. I'm told frog legs taste just like chicken.

Answer 2

Of course it's a bird...it's has all the anatomical features of a bird.
The longest recorded flight of a chicken is 14 seconds, actually.
And the reason why they don't fly isn't because they're too "fat". Some breeds of chicken are the same size and similar physical structure to a pigeon, but still do not fly. It's an aerodynamics thing.

Answer 3

Chickens CAN fly just not long distances which you'd determine as "flying". A penguin is a bird as is an emu and an ostrich and they dont fly.

Yes a chicken is a bird. Any animal covered with feathers is a bird (penguins do have feathers)

Answer 4

Of course they are birds. They have wings & feathers & beaks etc. They are naturally a ground dwelling bird though, and since human intervention has modified them to become heavy & meaty for our own use, they are even less adapted to flight. They can fly a little, but not very high or very far.
Emus, ostriches, casowaries & kiwis are other examples of birds that have also adapted to life on the ground.

Answer 5

Chicken is a domesticated bird. They can't fly because as you said they are fat and lazy but wild chicken can fly

Answer 6

Yes they are birds have you ever heard about penguins they are also birds Ostrich and Kiwi too they never fly but still they are birds.

Answer 7

They are fat birds. There are more birds that can't fly, like ostriches, penguins, turkeys, etc.
