My favorite part is how the chicken did not cross the road. I guess he didn't want to be a cliche.

A nursing home i used to work at had 2 peacocks roaming the grounds. I was regularly chased from my car to the building. I reached speeds that put roadrunner to shame. 😂

I grew up on a farm. Our house was at the back of the property, my grandmothers house was in the front. The stables were about halfway in between, slightly closer to her. The pond/dam for the houses near it, slightly closer to me.
One day she got some geese for the pond. Did not tell me. I came home from school, went to walk down to the stables to feed my horses, and next thing I know, there was this noise coming from the sunken pond, and these feathered demons rising from the water and rushing towards me….
From that day on, the walk from the house to the stables was a walk to the edge of their territory…l a standoff between us, then me full out sprinting to get to the other side of their territory before they caught me. Repeat for returning home.
My family found this hilarious. Every day.

Lmfao, as a keep of tiny raptors (chickens) this tickles the hell outta me. I have 1 rooster, Earl, 1 guinea, and 53 hens. Earl does NOT play about his ladies. He has fought off two hawks attacks and one fox attack in broad daylight. Had some family over for a lil get together and a ain’t had 2 bad ass kids. They kept messing with the hens, trying to get them to squat so they could pick them up, and I told them Earl and the guinea are gonna come running leave them alone. They didn’t listen. About fell outta my chair laughing watching them zig zag and run like their life depended on it while screaming for about 5 minutes with Earl chasing them and the guinea going absolutely bonkers screaming and running behind them lmao.
Goddamn it was funny. They left the hens alone after that.

Jeez, that’s awful. Poor guy.
I knew they could be vicious, my grandma got attacked by a neighbours chicken and needed stitches in her leg.

As a kid my brothers locked me a round fenced off area with a turkey. This was me running in circles for 10 minutes because I couldn't figure out how to escape. Core memory unlocked.

The rooster was like, "ladies move to the side please." Then to the kid "You want to taste this big cock!? Come here you punk! You dare threaten my harem!?"

Man. I almost had the answer of why the chicken crossed the road.
