Definitely livestock. They don't get names but rather numbered wing bands or leg bandettes.

There is no clear distinction for me regarding the labels. Everyone is treated as well as I can provide. I'm acutely aware of their well being and the work they do for me: whether eggs or the small income that goes right back into their feed, supplements, and shelters. I feel the same way about my cows ❤

I have over 90 chickens but I still consider all of them to be my pets and over half of them have names

Mine are pets! I love my all of my chickens, (Mr. Tilney, Darcy, Pippin, Moby, and Dorrit) and all of my ducks, (Guinevere, Arthur, Merlin, and Pendragon (Penny for short))! My little flock is the best!

My babies are pets definitely. The new rescue gal truly is a big spoiled baby!

 

[ChocolateMouse]

Livestock, but special ones get names and get kept around longer than is strictly practical. But they all get about the same quality of care otherwise.

My baby boy is a pet.

Spoiled pets for sure. Wally enjoys a beak rub

Even though my chickens are very spoiled pets, I respect everyone's option. Thank you for the votes and please keep them coming!

Also, I just wanted to share that a lot of people (I'm not talking about people on this forum ) don't treat chickens like living beings. They think they are strictly food and treat them like machines. I'm happy to see that a lot of you know that chickens can be pets!! ❤
