Yes, chickens are born with auditory receptors. They are not like human ears. They will develop feathering over the ear canal as they get older. This feathering is often used to help determine the color of eggs the chicken will produce as most breeds ear feathers are the same color as the shell of the egg they lay. It also important that you don't touch their ears, as they are very sensitive.
