What's up with dumping chickens ?
Our take
What’s the deal with dumping chickens? It’s a perplexing phenomenon that has captured the attention of many in our community. After spending several months on this subreddit, it’s hard not to notice the recurring posts about people finding abandoned chickens. Why on earth would someone do this? In my experience living in Ukrainian Village, if you no longer want a chicken, the options are pretty clear: you either eat it or pass it along to a neighbor. In a world where predators lurk at night, a dumped chicken doesn’t stand much of a chance. Let’s dive into this puzzling issue and explore the motivations behind such actions, as well as share some cluck-tastic insights from my flock as they eagerly await the arrival of spring!

| I've been on this sub for several months and I see recurrent posts about someone finding dumped chickens. What is this? Why would someone do it? I live in Ukrainian village and if you don't want a chicken for some reason, you either eat it or give it to your neighbours. Anyway no chicken would survive a night before getting eaten by predators. The photo of my flock waiting for spring. [link] [comments] |

- Someone dumped this guy at my local park… just wondering what breed they could be?I brought them back from the verge of death/hypothermia with a hair dryer and syringe-fed water… I figure probably a meat chicken. I have them set up with some food and water in a Guinea pig cage upstairs until the morning when rescues are open. I’ll find one to take them then. submitted by /u/fuckredditdawg [link] [comments]
- Dumped roostersAs per my previous post I, as someone who knows nothing about chickens, have been catching dumped roosters the past year. These guys have already been rehomed, but look how gorgeous they are! I also added clips at the end of how the more scaredy ones are caught. I’ve put so many hours into these guys, but I’ve grown such a soft spot for roosters. submitted by /u/GenimD [link] [comments]
- Who is my feathery visitor?This lady keeps prowling my yard for the last week, as far as I could find online it appears to be a gamefowl rather than your standard egg-laying chicken. I live somewhat rural and I'd say 1/3 of my neighbors keep chickens, but is there a reason one might just abandon their flock and go rogue? I assume my yard is just prime for snacks at this point, but no clue why she's doing her solo trips. submitted by /u/PukefrothTheUnholy [link] [comments]
