Since chickens aren't mammals, their "breasts" are not mammary glands. However, "breast" can also mean just the area of the body. Chicken breasts are also known as "white meat" since the flesh is lighter that than of the legs (the "dark meat"). Birds' breast muscle is what powers their wings, although in domesticated fowl such as chickens and turkeys, its bulk prevents the birds from flying.

The term "breast" in reference to chicken chests likely originated from the anatomy of the bird, as the chest area is where the breast meat is located. Over time, this part of the chicken has commonly been referred to as the "breast" due to its shape and location on the bird's body.
