Is a chicken a mammal or a reptile?

Answer 1

No.

Chickens are birds, which is a different group of vertebrates from mammals.

Birds lay eggs, while most mammals give birth to live offspring. The only exceptions to this are the platypus and echidna, which are monotremes, or egg-laying mammals. No. Chickens are birds, which is a different group of vertebrates from mammals.

Answer 2

A bird

Reader:That makes no scence. bird isn't a classification, mammal is a classification, reptile is a classification and amphibian is a classification. Sooooo what's a chicken.

Update: Bird is indeed the correct answer. Here is why... A Chicken is part of the animal kingdom which consists of vertebrates and invertebrates (i.e. spine or no spine). Chickens are vertebrates (they have a spine). Of the vertebrates, there are five types: fish, reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and birds. Chickens fall into the bird group because they produce hard shell eggs and have feathers, not hair. Mammals (the females anyway) have hair/fur, carry babies in the womb, give live birth, and produce milk for their young.
