I reckon birds, fish and reptiles only do the latter. Reacting to stimuli precedes sentience evolutionary.
Why do you think pain is a quality of being sentient? You and I are on different pages.
Well pain itself isn't but any experience requires sentience so the experience of actually feeling pain and it actually being painful, and not to just be a bodily reaction that looks like pain from the outside, requires sentience. Any pain that is actually painful to an organism requires sentience.

No... the discussion was about whether or not a CHICKEN can feel pain. Not a plant.
So why did you bring up plants? Lol.
