Can dog eat hen?In: Science, Biology, Ecosystems |

Answer
Yes a dog can eat a hen. If you mean that you have live hens & want to know if it is possible that your dog would eat them, then yes. If you want to know if it is safe to feed a cooked hen to a dog, then yes. A hen is a female chicken, so it's not much different than feeding it dog food made from chicken. If you do have live hens, though, it is best that you keep them away from the dog for their safety & well-being. If your dog has already eaten one of your hens, then it should be okay, unless the hen was diseased. If so, the dog needs a vet ASAP. However, if the dog continues to eat the live hens, it can end up contracting salminella or some other kind of bacterial illness which derives from poultry.
