As chickens this request isn’t strange

My buddies would rather be running around

Then in a skillet about to be browned

Our eggs are a protein most nutritious

When an ingredient makes many dishes delicious

Without eggs souffles wouldn’t rise

And quiches need eggs to optimize

Besides their protein is the most affordable

In addition, live chickens are so adorable

Hens have consistent egg production

Laying 500 eggs a year without instruction

Let me inform you of all chicken’s wishes

Keeping them alive provides a plethora of dishes

Their demise provides only one dinner

The chicken’s the loser but you are no winner
