Where are the ears of the chick?

The ears of chickens are located behind the eyes, above the cervical vertebrae, and are covered with flaky feathers. This is the ear canal of the chicken.

A chicken’s hearing is basically done by its ears, and its skin or feet have a very weak ability to sense sound waves. Without ears, it can’t hear anything.

The ears of chickens are the sound organs of chickens. In addition, they can maintain the balance of the chicken’s body and reduce the pressure of Lunet. Birds have small heads, and of course their ears are small, unlike mammals, which have external ears, except for owls.
