Final answer:

The name of the baby chick's brother is not specified in the question. It appears to be a trick question, emphasizing the importance of carefully reading and analyzing what the question is asking.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks about the name of a chicken's brother. However, it is a trick question because the name of the brother is not given in the information provided. It appears to be a play on words or a riddle, where the student is expected to answer that the name of the brother is not specified. This type of question is less about a specific subject area and more about logic or understanding trick questions.

In the provided story extracts, there is no direct connection to the question about the chickens. The first story is about a young boy reading, which demonstrates early literacy. The second story involves a farmer's chickens, which illustrates a concept in genetics. The third is a conversation which does show someone named Tom, but this does not relate to the chickens' names. Therefore, none of the extracts provides an answer to the chicken's brother's name, confirming that it is unspecified.
