Reminder that this is a stealth mission. You're gonna want a stealthier animal than a chicken. Imagine crawling through the dark in tense silence, only to to given away by a loud BKAWK. Not even a hobbit could sneak further than Moria with that condition.
Furthermore; The One Ring's greatest limitation is that it cannot just sprout legs and run off. Even beings of higher intelligence can be bent and manipulated to the ring's will (IE its ultimate goal of returning to Sauron). Putting the thing on an animal sounds like the best opportunity one could give an evil, tangentially sentient piece of jewelry the option to pilot the poor creature like a meat-mech directly into Sauron's clutches at the first opportunity.
As an aside: the ring could not be worn by said animal, it would needs be lashed to it. Imagine keeping track of a chicken which is now invisible to normal people, and also lit up like a beacon to the eye of Sauron and his otherwise day-blind ring wraiths. Bad idea.

Lol for sure I know one of mine has a loud ass egg song. A rooster would be funny too because. They never shut the fuck up
-
-
how could it work?
whoever carries the chicken will be tempted by the ring and will likely kill the chicken in a fit of weakness
-
Yeah, Boromir was tempted by the ring just by proximity. Nevermind, how a person plans to make a chicken cooperate with heading into a blasted hellscape and up a volcano.
If that's the "plan", the smarter version is to just drag it in a bag behind you.

Every day the ring is passed to the next person in the rotation, out in the open and acknowledged by all. The new bearer has to pledge, "I definitely will not be a punk-ass removed and try to keep the ring, and I promise to suck everyone's cock if I do. "
-
they could have forged the ring into a chain. not like an necklace, like using the ring as a chain link, make I'm mithril, people might still be tempted to use it, but no one could wear it.

You're saying everyone would've been tempted by Frodo's cock?
-
The look Sam gave him at the end of the trilogy had me wondering

I have a hen that’s pretty bossy but for god sakes don’t give it to a rooster. A rooster would be king of Mordor in a hot second.
-
Someone has never owned chickens. They are capable of unspeakable acts
-
This sounds like a clip from a LOTR × Ghostbusters crossover. They try using a trap but the One Ring upgrades the trap to catch almost any spirit or demon, including Balrogs, tempting the Ghostbusters to use it to capture Sauron, which, of course, is pure folly.
-
They’d have eaten the chicken pretty fast.
-
First day, second breakfast

Do it Canadian style, with a Cobra Chicken.
There wouldn’t be anything else alive after that for sure.
-
Well, first of all, the ring makes you invisible
-
I thought it just exaggerated whatever traits your race naturally has. Hobbits are sneaky -> hobbitses go invisible
-
Now that you say it, I don’t remember the book ever really getting into what effects it might have on other races. All we know is it makes hobbits invisible, and that it had no effect whatsoever on Tom Bombadil. No one else got a chance to try it on if memory serves me correctly (the elves refused, the humans weren’t allowed, and the orcs never got near enough).
It’s been many years since I’ve read it however, so I’m happy to be corrected.

-
Would it also make the leash invisible, because it's attached to the chicken? If so, would it also make Frodo invisible because he is holding the leash?
-
It is my understanding that what the ring actually does is give you power related to your greatest desire.
What this would be for a chicken is unknown to me
-
What if its desire was to be so big that it can pick humans as if they were grains?
Sounds pretty dangerous, I can understand why they didn’t want to risk it.

why dont they render the ring unusable by putting it on a larger metal ring
put the larger ring on gollum as a fancy bdsm slave collar and throw the whole happy and docile sub gollum off an eagle into mount doom
edit: how to put the ring over gollums head? idk weld it together once he wears it
-
One fowl to rule them all
-
It's been tried. Where do you think nazgǔl come from?
-
Fools. When they will learn.
-
That's incredible

-
Kite-Man: Hell Yeah. The Anti-Life Equation infects a chicken, and it proceeds to murder a lot of people.
It finds a way.
-
Why else did they have four hobbits in the fellowship?
You need a few spare mules in case you gotta put the first one down.
-
Sam would make an excellent chicken sandwich with this Lembas bread.
-
Then the Chicken becomes an unwitting spy, and easy to steal from.
-
You underestimate the murderous-ness of chickens.
Chickens are no joke. Theyre assholes too.
They're also tasty. I'm sure if it came down to it even a vegan wouldn't have many qualms about eating a supremely evil (but still tasty) chicken.
They know, in the depths of their evil little bird brains, that they are dinosaurs.
And what dino (deinos) stands for.
