Our group chose a chicken as our group’s animal.
As a group, we predict that the chicken will possibly have no beak, feathers, or other unnecessary body parts that make it hard to turn the chicken into food. Chickens have many uses, one is for their meat, and one is for eggs. It all depends on what you are using the chicken for. This is where it gets a little confusing. If you would want it to lay eggs, it would need to have a beak, a feather, and other necessary body parts. Whereas, if you were to use it for meat, as previously mentioned, no feathers, which has already been bred, possibly no beak, and also smaller feet, so they are easier to prepare to eat. So there may have to be two different types of species of chickens, the chicken we know today, and the easier to eat type of chicken.
But if the chicken was to have no beak, how is it to hatch out of its shell? The beak may evolve smaller, like the feet. It all depends on what type of environment and chemicals scientists put into the chickens. If we did not put chemicals into chickens at all, I assume they would evolve into some type of duck-like creature. But with the chemicals, it could evolve into a completely different animal, such as the one with six legs and six wings. The whole point of the chemicals is to make the chickens easier to prepare for food and to have more limbs to eat per chicken.
