All about the chicken

The chicken is one of the birds in our Animal Kingdom. You can find it in farms, and it eats grain, seeds and bugs. Listen for it: clucks, and the rooster crows. This page is a good fit for ages 3 to 7 (Preschool to 2nd Grade), and Buzzby can read it out loud.

Is the chicken one of the birds?

Yes. Birds have feathers, wings and a beak, and they hatch from eggs.
