It is called the cloaca
The male chicken does not have a penis and there is no penetration of the female reproductive tract at the time of mating. Instead the female inverts her cloaca which comes in contact with the male's inverted cloaca and receives the sperm. The cloaca is then drawn back into the hen's body and the sperm are captured. They then begin the journey up the length of the reproductive system. The sperm live inside the female reproductive system for up to 10 days and each time an ovulation occurs (every 24-26 hours in good egg producers) the egg can become fertile.
