No. As long as the species is the same (and sometimes not even the same) they can and do mate. This is how cross breeds are produced. Many special purpose breeds are developed this way. A breed with good meat qualities is crossed with a breed with good egg laying qualities and a dual purpose bird is eventually bred. Chickens and guinea fowl can cross breed, peafowl and grouse have been done also.
