For me, the female picks her mate based on the genetic traits she wants. Be it long colorful quills, eloquent teeth and claws, muscularity, what traits she wants her children to inherit, that she will pick. Now, lets assume birds on earth are in any way the same, and that they already have the genetic code to become dinosaurs. They most likely don't become dinosaurs, because they don't want to. The end. I'm assuming that you believe Horner's team is going to allow the Chickenosaurus to socialize and breed with non-modified chickens. They're most likely going to modify several nests, and since chickens lay about 3-12 eggs per nest, this will give the chickenosaurs enough to create at least a small population.
