Why Did The Chicken Cross The Instagram Account?


If you ask anyone who shares their home with a chicken, they’ll tell you that chickens are sweet, smart, and individualistic. Check out some of our favorite Instagram accounts that prove that chickens are friends, not food. 

Hen Stefani@hen_stefani

This Arizona resident shares her home with several different (and adorable) chicken species as well as some very funny ducks! Cakes, Pablo, Banjo and the rest of the gang are living it up in AZ.

Sammi Chicken@sammichicken

Sammi the chicken is quite the traveler, and spends a lot of her time at the beach with her human, Dave. What a lucky girl!

Bree The Rescue Rooster – @breeandmerooster

By now, hopefully you can see that chickens deserve as much consideration as the dogs and cats many of us share our homes with. Animal Equality works hard to help protect these beautiful animals through education, legal advocacy, and corporate campaigns. We are currently running a campaign calling on McDonald’s to eliminate the worst abuses for chickens in their supply chain. Have you signed the petition yet?
