Would you keep a chicken as pet?

I read that some people have ducks or chickens as pets. I wouldn't keep one because that would be impossible. I would need a yard for myself and I don't have that. Chickens are smart and they can be trained. Chickens remind me of my childhood. My grandmother used to have her yard full of chickens.

@dya80dya Dogs. I've had a dog for many years. I'm thinking about getting one again. We'll see what happens.

I think she couldn't eat them if they were pets.

They didn't live too long. Did you keep them in a yard? Why were they the last pets?

Yes people still pet chicken in the country side, as they have lots of space. Even my sisters who stay in the village pet

Chicken is food stock to me. Though I don't like the hassle of processing our own chicken.

We had five of them and one lived for 12 years. Old age is not for chickens

No, I would not like to keep them as a pet as they need lots of attention and safety from the predators.

I see chicken as food not as a pet. Though I was playing with the chicken when I was little.
