Chickens are friends for some people, dinner for others. Sometimes both.

But one animal rights group feels that the name of a rural road in the Treasure Valley isn’t kind to poultry.

PETA sent out a news release Wednesday morning alerting Idaho media that it has written a letter to Caldwell Mayor Garret Nancolas to ask for a change to the street name Chicken Dinner Road. However, Caldwell city street maps don’t include Chicken Dinner Road, which is located in rural Canyon County.

“Just like dogs, cats, and human beings, chickens feel pain and fear and value their own lives,” said PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman in the letter.

She wants the mayor to change the name of the road to “one that celebrates chickens as individuals, not as beings to kill, chop up, and label as ‘dinner.’ ”

Susan Miller, the Caldwell mayor’s assistant, told the Statesman that the mayor was in a meeting. She said she wasn’t sure whether he’d be issuing a response to PETA’s request

Correct me if I’m wrong here, but I’m pretty sure chickens can’t read.

I mean honestly, why would anyone give the slightest shite about this? Even peta? Ok so let's say they change the name to friendship road or something happy, what has actually been accomplished? Why does peta care about some local small town backroad in nowhere idaho?

Tell you what, the moment PETA gets a single chicken to admit they are offended by this the road name should be changed.

Chickens “value” their own lives.
