Much worse in mammals; we don't be getting any thylacines back because of a lack of near-relatives suitable to be incubators, and we might not be able to manage a mammoth if extant elephants have diverged too much.
Still, chickens with alien gonads is a very cool technology and I can see it being immensely useful with the various horribly threatened galliform birds, like sage grouse and sharp-tailed grouse.
