Do chickens have belly buttons?

Best Answers

Belly buttons show where the umbilical cord attached to the baby. Umbilical cords attach a baby to the mother for nutrients and oxygen. Only babies that are in the uterus for development have this. Chickens hatch from eggs and therefore don't have a bellybutton. Mammals have belly buttons, other animals do not. read more

No, chickens are hatched from an egg. A belly button is the spot where the umbilical cord is attached just like on us, dogs, cats, etc. read more
