Read the full guide

Two emoji are filed under chicken, and the rooster is neither

CLDR, Unicode's search word list, files two emoji under chicken: Chicken and Poultry leg. Rooster is filed under rooster and the chicks under chick. Nothing is filed under hen, which Wikipedia gives as the adult female, so Chicken does that job too.

Older than the egg

Chicken, the three chicks and the drumstick carry Emoji 0.6, the oldest label there is; Rooster is 1.0 and Egg is 3.0. Goose, from Emoji 15.0, is the newest single emoji here. The five text chickens are plain ASCII, and the hieroglyph needs a font that has it.

Tips
  • Search crow and the rooster answers in ten languages. Search hen for her cluck, the text hens and Mother hen.
  • No emoji is fried chicken. Fried chicken, near enough is a drumstick and fries; search fried or nuggets for it.
  • The five text chickens use keyboard characters only. The backslash is the tail.

Questions and answers

Is there a hen emoji?

Not by name. No emoji is called hen, and CLDR files nothing under the word. ๐Ÿ” is U+1F414, named Chicken, and Wikipedia gives hen as an adult female chicken. The male has his own: ๐Ÿ“ Rooster, U+1F413.

Is there a fried chicken emoji?

No. The nearest is ๐Ÿ—, U+1F357, named Poultry leg and filed under chicken, drumstick and turkey. CLDR gives the word fried to fried shrimp alone. Two combos stand in: Fried chicken, near enough and Chicken soup.

What does the chicken emoji mean?

A chicken. CLDR gives ๐Ÿ” four words: animal, bird, chicken and ornithology. Wiktionary lists chicken as slang for a coward, and chicken out as backing out of something bold. Chicken out is one of the combos; search coward and it is the only answer.

Is there a baby chicken emoji?

Three: ๐Ÿฃ Hatching chick, ๐Ÿค Baby chick and ๐Ÿฅ Front-facing baby chick. All three carry Emoji 0.6 and are filed under chick. Wikipedia notes that chicken was once the word for the chick. The combo Egg to hen runs them in order.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-19, not typed by hand. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji version numbers come from emoji-test.txt, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt); names are the CLDR short names printed in that file, in sentence case. Four names in that file contain chick, and none contains hen, cockerel, nugget or drumstick. The search words are from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml, main branch). CLDR lists the word chicken for two emoji (chicken and poultry leg), rooster for the rooster alone, chick for the three chicks, fowl for the goose alone, fried for fried shrimp alone, farm for 11 emoji of which none is a chicken, and nothing under hen, cluck, cock, cockerel, coop, roost, nugget or coward. Every character that is not an emoji was checked against UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), and a note that names a character uses its name from that file. The meanings and readings of U+9D8F, U+96DE, U+9E21 and U+9149, and the simplified form of U+96DE, are from the Unihan database, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unihan.zip). The hieroglyph description is the kEH_Desc value of U+13171 in Unikemet.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unikemet.txt); none of the descriptions in that file mentions a chicken, a rooster, a cockerel or a hen. The words for chickens, what they eat, how far they fly and when hens cluck are from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken; the definition of poultry from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poultry; the zodiac from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooster_(zodiac); the riddle from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_did_the_chicken_cross_the_road; the folk tale from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henny_Penny; the French symbol from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallic_rooster; the year 1921 and Hackordnung from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_hierarchy; comfort food from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_soup. The crow in ten languages and the cluck in three are from the table of domestic birds at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-linguistic_onomatopoeias, spelled as that table spells them. The meanings in the notes are from Wiktionary's entries chicken, hen, cluck, cock-a-doodle-doo, cockcrow, chicken out, spring chicken, don't count your chickens before they're hatched, pecking order, rule the roost, the chickens come home to roost, mother hen, chicken scratch, fly the coop, chicken feed, weathercock and fox in the henhouse (each at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ plus the phrase).
