Do chickens have feelings, do chickens have feelings, do they have memories?

Everything in the world has its emotional world. And its way of survival. Chickens also protect their eggs when hatching chicks. After the chicks come out of the eggshells, the old hen will stop the chicks under her belly. If there is a chicken, the old hen will peck it.

China is the first country in the world to domesticate chickens, with a history of at least 4,000 years. In Hubei, Jiangxi, Shandong, Henan, Gansu and other provinces, chicken bones or pottery chickens more than 4,000 years ago have been found. Chinese chickens are domesticated from pheasants, and there are many excellent varieties, among which Jiujin Huang and Wolf Mountain Chicken are very famous.

Nine catties of yellow, also called Pudong chicken, produced in Shanghai Nanhui, Fengxian, Chuansha area, is a large broiler, feathers, beak, feet are yellow, so it is also known as three yellow chicken. Nine catties of yellow, the individual is extra-large, the meat is delicious, so it is welcomed by the people of the world, and has played a great role in the improvement of the breed of the world's chickens. It was first introduced to Britain in 1843 and imported to the United States in 1847.

The American Rock Chicken was formed in 1865 by crossing the American chicken with nine catties of yellow and black and white spots in China. Japan introduced Chinese chicken breeds during the Sui Dynasty, and by the end of the shogunate, the nine-catty yellow chicken from Shanghai was introduced and bred into the famous Nagoya chicken with meat and eggs. Wolf Mountain Chicken is mainly produced in Jiangsu, this kind of chicken has strong disease resistance and developed breast chicken.

Imported to Britain in 1872, the famous British breed of Opinton chicken is a cross between the wolf mountain chicken and the local chicken. Later, the wolf pheasant was imported to the United States and Germany. It can be seen that the ancient Chinese chicken breeds have a great impact on the world.

Recently, a hen in the house hatched a litter of chicks. Generally speaking, hens will also protect their children like other mother-like animals, which is a very normal phenomenon, so every day when watching this hen walk with strong wings slightly open like a warrior and protect the chicks behind her, you will also feel that the hen is like this.

However, I was pleasantly surprised by what I found. When our hen took the chicks out on the first day, she didn't pay much attention to them during the day. By the time the evening came, we saw that the other chickens had come into the coop, but we didn't find our hens or chicks among the chickens.

We were also worried that the hen had taken the chicks to a very dangerous place and that something had happened.

So, we searched around, but we couldn't find it for a long time. When we returned to the coop, we counted the number of chickens and the hens with the chicks were still there, but we didn't know when they came back.

In order to find out when the hens and the chicks returned, we paid special attention to the situation in the chicken coop in the evening of the next day, and found that the hens had already returned with the chicks, and it was not dark at this time. Suddenly, I felt that the hen was really unusual. She knew that she already had a lot of chicks and that it might be dangerous to go back late, so she took the chickens back to the chicken coop before dark.

Indeed, there are many wonderful phenomena among animals, and we really can't say that only people can think, and all existence is spiritual.

Chickens have feelings and memories. Chickens have feelings, and scientifically all animals except cold-blooded animals (like snakes) have feelings! As for the memory of chickens, according to a certain experiment, chickens also have memories.

Introduction

It's just that the chicken's memory is less than 30 seconds, so if the chicken grows lost, one chicken will not be rejected by other chickens like cows and sheep in other flocks.

Chicken is a type of poultry, and domestic chickens are derived from wild raw chickens.

It was domesticated for at least about 4,000 years, but it wasn't until around 1800 that chicken and eggs became mass-produced commodities. The types of chickens are turkey, black chicken, pheasant, etc. And the rooster is also the 12th zodiac.

One of the genera.

Chickens have feelings and memories. Animal Cognition, a journal owned by Springer, the world's leading scientific, technical and medical publisher, published an article on the fact that chickens are unreasonably underestimated and obscured by other bird species.

Not only that, but chickens also have a certain memory. If a chicken sees a moving ball, it can remember its movement after the ball disappears, and this memory can be maintained for 180 seconds. If the movement of the ball is blocked, it will still remember its trajectory for 1 minute. Under similar conditions, this ability is comparable to that of most primates.

Definitely! Otherwise, how can it make a different sound.

Chickens have brains and should have a certain memory, for example, if you buy a new chicken, tie it near the nest with a rope during the day, lock it in the nest at night, remove the rope after two nights, open the door of the nest in the morning, let it come out by itself, and return to the nest by itself at night, "know the new home"; In chicken farms, chicks get water from the drinker, and they also need to learn and memorize. However, poultry may still be in a lower position in terms of evolution, and the brain may not have a stronger ability to analyze and judge, and may not be able to judge the impact of the death of the same kind on itself. The long-term process of domestication has made poultry more dependent on humans, but in fact most of them will still keep a certain distance from humans, if a free-range chicken is often driven away, it will also remember that when someone comes, it will leave quickly, maybe this is a sign of fear, but it may not analyze whether the visitor just wants to drive it away, or just use it for cooking.
