No.

There is nothing in the digestive system of a hen that can react with gold. Hydrochloric acid is produced in the proventriculus (true stomach) to help digestion. But while hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, by itself, it can't react directly with gold to dissolve or digest it. However, it will remove any oxide from the gold, so after passing through a chicken, it will be real shiny.

No, chickens do not have the ability to digest gold. Gold is a non-reactive metal that passes through the digestive system without being broken down or absorbed.
