Has anyone ever registered their hen or rooster as an emotional support animal? I’m flying to Portland from LA in a week, and I want to bring one of my chickens to give to my mom. He’s the sweetest rooster, and my mom really bonded with him when she visited recently. Her husband (my step dad) of 13 years passed away last September so she has had a pretty hard time adjusting to the new normal. I feel like Honeybear (the roo) would be a great companion for her. Anyway, I called the airline and they said they will not allow a chicken to fly in the cabin or as checked baggage because they are not considered a household bird. So, what I am thinking is if I get my chicken registered as an emotional support animal, and even get a doctors note, the airline has to accommodate right? Has anyone ever done this, or do you know what rights people have when it comes to support animals?
