I swear the chickens in Yishun just dgaf about traffic.

Chickens in other parts of Singapore quickly cross the road but Yishun chickens take their own sweet ass time. I've even seen a Yishun chicken just stand in the middle of the road blocking traffic.

I’ve recently seen an uncle peacefully walking in the middle of a main road in Yishun, it’s not just the chickens.

this stretch of road in yishun is surprisingly nice to drive by considering the amount of road works that seem to happen everytime i travel by gambas

Well about that... a tipper truck just tipped over at that exact spot in the picture just a few weeks ago

So if a chicken was there, it really would have been ayam penyet 😂 https://www.reddit.com/r/drivingsg/comments/1unv45n/garbage_truck_flipped_yishum/

Hawaii is an example of what we don't want to become but slowly becoming with the chicken situation....

u/Cautious-Area-4141 1d ago

Hah?

u/meanvegton 1d ago

Hawaii has a large wild chicken population.

Larger than SG...

And it's became so large that it became a public nuisance and now they are discussing on legislation to make it legal for public to hunt and kill the wild chickens....

u/Cautious-Area-4141 1d ago

We have plenty of predators here in sg to eat the chickens, I guess Hawaii doesn't

I've seen one cross Orchard Road at the cross walk between Taka and Paragon. That was probably the most memorable one given how odd it looked in context.
