Self-sustainable farming and chicken raising have flourished in recent years, and celebrities are no exception. While some stars have chickens as pets, others take agriculture more seriously. Chickens have become quite popular, with numerous photos and videos appearing on social media of celebrities feeding, petting, or even walking them on leashes. Chickens love posing with celebrities for photos.
During the pandemic, keeping chickens gained new momentum, partly due to the difficulty of finding eggs in stores. What once seemed a hobby has become important for both body and mind, and keeping chickens hasn’t been this popular since World War II, according to The Times. More than five million chickens are kept in homes across the UK, and the trend is even more popular in the US.
