Pullet
Chook

What are some others?
 
well in german a female chicken is a "Henne, a rooster is a "Hahn" and the fuzzy butts are called
"Kueken" , the ones you buy in the store are frozen 99% of the time and are usually called "Haehnchen" or "Brathaehnchen"
ducks are "Enten"
turkey are "truthahn"(m) and truthenne(f)
pheasants are "fasane"
