        The wings have joints. Wings aren’t usually served whole. It’s like an arm. They have the part that’s from the shoulder to elbow, then elbow to wrist, and there’s a third joint that’s like the hand but it’s too small to do anything with so it’s usually cut off and not served or just fried with the lower part of the wing because it’s mostly cartilage.

          Do they take part of it off before selling whole chickens? Every chicken I've seen in a grocery store just has the one on each side

        Birds have 2 whole wings, but in many cases (not all) when served, they're broken into 3 pieces with the tips discarded, giving you 4 "party wings" per bird
