The red skin hanging off their beak is called a wattle. And you probably already know that the top is called a comb. They are used in courtship and other displays of the like. It is also a sign of maturity. Thanks, DavidJr
Usually feathers but if you are talking about the red fleshy thing on the head of a rooster, that is called a Comb. The red flesh below the beak is called a wattle.Combs and wattles are used to help cool the bird down and to attract a mate.
The red thing on top of a chicken's head is called a comb. It is the primary way for chickens to expel body heat. All of a human's skin helps us expel body heat but for a chicken it is only the comb and the skin of its face that expel the heat.
A cockscomb, cock's-comb, or (less commonly) coxcomb is a fleshy growth, caruncle, or crest on the top of the head of many gallinaceous birds, notably turkeys, pheasants, and domestic chickens. It is generally larger on males than on females.The crest is a prominent feature exhibited by several bird and dinosaur species on their heads.
I am assuming you mean the red things hanging under the "chin" of the hen. Yes, they are called wattles, the puffy red things on the top of the head are called combs. Both these features can be single or double.
It is called the Comb.

The red bumps on a turkey's head are called CARUNCLES.

This flap of loose skin, found on roosters, turkeys, some dog and goat varieties, and even some humans, is called a wattle.
Combs are not just decorations on a chicken head. The comb of a chicken (both male and female) combined with the wattle to help cool the chicken down in hot conditions. Blood circulated through these two fleshy areas is exposed to air and cools as it travels through.
