The Bedside Dream Dictionary
by Silvana Amar
This flightless bird may be pointing to personal characteristics and needs that you may not necessarily want to look at. Consider the activities in the dream, as well as the mood, and then attempt to make a good interpretation. Chickens can represent cowardliness, gossip, excessive talking, and powerlessness. They are not known for their intelligence or beauty, and their presence in your dream could be an invitation to get more serious and better focused.
The more positive suggestion in this dream is in that chickens lay eggs. Eggs are symbolic of something new and fragile. They represent life and development in its earliest forms and as such, their possibilities are limitless.
Ten Thousand Dream Interpretation
by Gustavus Hindman Miller
To dream of seeing a brood of chickens, denotes worry from many cares, some of which of which will prove to your profit. Young or half grown chickens, signify fortunate enterprises, but to make them so you will have to exert your physical strength.
To see chickens going to roost, enemies are planning to work you evil.
To eat them, denotes that selfishness will detract from your otherwise good name. Business and love will remain in precarious states.
The Mystic Dream Book
by Stephen Girard
To dream of a hen and chickens is the fo-rernnner of ill-luck; your sweetheart will betray you, and marry another. If you are a farmer, you will have a bad crop, and lose many of your poultry; if you are in trade, some sharper will defraud you; if you go to sea, you will lose your goods, and narrowly escape shipwreck.
