It depends on how closely related they are.
Domestic chickens - like domestic cats and dogs - can cross breed any old how and produce fertile offspring.
While humans have made them look very different, the difference is really quite superficial.
They might be different breeds, but they're the same species.
Different species mating, and producing fertile offspring is considerably rarer.
There are many different species of birds and breeding is generally confined within the species. They may have be a rare isolated occurence but generally one species 'courtship signals' are only recognised by the same species.
Some can but it is extremely rare. Usually a hybrid animal is created in an artificial setting - laboratory, zoo, private Collection etc - since it doesn't tend to occur in nature. The offspring of birds that cross breed across the species divide are often sterile.
Same goes for horse/donkey, horse/zebra, donkey/zebra, lion/tiger crosses.

∙ 15y agoOnly if they are closely related geneticly. Two examples of hybridization among birds in the wild are:The blue wing warbler and the golden winged warbler sometimes breed where their ranges overlap.The results are called Brewster's warblers or Lawrence's warbler.Also,another common hybridization occurs with the mallard and black ducks.This particular hybridization is troubling,as the black duck is decling in many areas,and this crossing with the mallard could only speed the process.
