Actually yes. While the chickens body is covered with feathers, the legs are scaled just as their ansestors were. If you look at a roosters legs you will see fine scales. Many breeds also have scaling around the beak.

The outer layer of the shell is covered by horny scales called scutes that are part of its outer skin, or epidermis.
