It's already a dinosaur.

It may be dinosaur genes which had been deactivated in normal chickens being reactivated in this one.

Haha, I find it unlikely many therapod dinosaurs had feet for hands

Early ancestors might https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xuanhanosaurus

That's actually pretty interesting, I hadn't even heard of Xuanghanosaurus before. However

Later paleontologists have not agreed with Dong's original assessment. They think this dinosaur walked on its hind legs as other theropods did, pronation of the lower arm being impossible.

There are a lot of gaps in our knowledge on dinosaurs, much of what we "know" about dinosaurs is little more than educated guesswork.

Lol, mate I know. Believe me. I read up on new stuff related to them pretty much every day. We know they didn't just randomly have feet where there hands were though. That's not educated guesswork

We’re not actually sure whether dinosaurs even existed, or if the fossils were planted by the devil to make us doubt the bible. Remember, evolution is just a theory!

All its genes are dinosaur genes
