No, chickens are not mammals. To be a mammal, a vertebrate must produce milk for its offspring. Chickens do not.
Chickens are birds. They have feathers and reproduce by a hard shelled egg. A mammal is an animal that gives live birth (except for marsupials and monotremes), has hair on it's body and feeds its babies with milk.
