Hi YB,

Are you looking for the reference genome sequence, or for annotations on 
the reference genome?  GTF is a format for annotations:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQformat.html#format4

If you are looking for the chicken reference genome sequence, you can 
find it here:
http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/galGal3/bigZips/

If you are looking for gene annotations in GTF format, you can get them 
from the Table Browser (http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables), but be 
aware of this problem with GTF-formatted Table Browser output:
https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2011-June/026236.html

If you want to use Ensembl's gene annotations for chicken that are 
already in GTF format, you can get them directly from Ensembl:
ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/release-65/gtf/gallus_gallus/

Alternatively, you could use genePredToGtf to convert gene annotations 
from the Table Browser that you retrieve in genePred format (use "output 
format: all fields from selected table" to get most of the gene 
annotations in genePred format):
https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2011-July/026507.html

I hope this information is helpful.  If you have further questions, 
please contact us again at [email protected].
