Chicken sized dinosaurs might be easy to kick away and run away from. Unless they’re like raptors and able to jump on me. And that’s 50 of them.. would be terrifying.

a T-Rex sized chicken would probably eat me alive. But something tells me it would be too dumb and not even have the attention span to follow me. It’s only 1 so your chances of survival might be high if you can hide or outrun it.

OK, so to elaborate further, the dinosaur in question is not a T-Rex. That would be insane. It’s not a Triceratops, as they’re herbivores thus it would be too easy. I’d say the dino in question is a raptor.

I’ll take the giant chicken. a chicken sized raptor would be worse than a chicken sized t-rex imo. They’re faster, more agile and pretty sure they thrive at pack hunting.

edit: hell I’d take an actual t-rex over 50 mini raptors

When you say fight, what do you mean? Am I allowed to run away? If so I'd probably choose the 50 chicken size because I'm sure I could outrun them, or just climb up on something.
If I actually have to fight them, do I get any weapons? If I have to fist fight the thing this highly depends on how large the single chicken is. If we are talking raptor size then I'd choose the giant chicken. If we are talking T-Rex size there is no way, so I'd go with the chicken sized dinos and just try to kite them while swinging at the ones that jump at me.

One dinosaur sized chicken because they are still frail like a normal chicken, no hard scails or nothing, you put a spear on them and they die, also they don't have the predator instinct of a t-rex, sure it is big AF, but 50 small t-rex can overwhelm you easily, they just need to bite your ankle once and you are fucked, and they are probably too hard too injure them with a kick or a spear if you don't aim to their mouth, and with 50 of them around, good luck on aiming well.

Of course this take in account that the mini dinos are t-rex or some other apex predator.

This changes everything!

Fighting 50 slightly smaller raptors or fight one slightly larger chicken...

I would take the large chicken as you may have a chance with 50 chicken size raptors there is non

One chicken sized 'dinosaur' can kill a man. 50 of them forget it. Plus you would probably still be alive as they ate you.


A dinosaur sized chicken you might be able to evade, and if you don't you are probably going out to one straight giant peck.

Bad news OP. A chicken IS a dinosaur. Ergo it's a chicken-sized dinosaurs


"Today, all non-avian dinosaurs are long extinct. But are birds still considered to be true dinosaurs?

In a word: Yes.

"Birds are living dinosaurs, just as we are mammals," said Julia Clarke, a paleontologist studying the evolution of flight and a professor with the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin. "

Basically paleontologists have determined that birds haven't evolved enough to really make them a seperate "thing" from dinosaurs. They still share some of the fundemental characteristics. Contemporary understanding is that there are still 10k extant species of avian dinosaurs.

So you elaborated saying not T-Rex and rather raptors.
Honestly if you made a raptor and Rex the same size I’d be much more terrified of the raptor.

So because of that I’m taking my chances against the big chicken. Chickens aren’t hunters the way dinosaurs are and I feel I’d have a better chance.

Probably going to die either way.

I could take 50 little dinosaurs.

Just identify the one with the beret and the eyepatch. That's their leader. Kill it, and the army crumbles.

Are you kidding me? Chickens are already mini dinosaurs. They would not hesitate to fuck you up if sized bigger.



You would have the same faith as the rat.


Imagine a fricking Tyrannosaur that has spores, can fly for short distances and kung fu kick the shit out of his prey.

Give me the chicken sized dinos anytime.

Probably the giant chicken.
It's not specified that you are unarmed. Chickens tend to be quite soft, I imagine that even if it's giant you could do a lot of damage with a shotgun

Dinosaur size chicken. If I lasso the giant bird imagine how much KFC would give me for it. What about the eggs? Dino size eggs could fetch a nice premium down on the farmers market ahh capitalism 😘

OP, why have you corrupted this extremely important debate with your chicken and dinosaur based lies?

The pure and true version is this:

Would you rather fight one horse sized duck, or fifty duck sized horses?

Are you anti duck, OP? Do you hate horses?

WHY OP? WHY?
 
So it's 50 chicken sized velociraptors vs 1 velociraptor sized chicken? This is a no brainer tbh. 50 velociraptors would easily fuck your shit up, even if they're a bit smaller than an actual velociraptor. The big chicken would also a be a bitch to fight, but it would be managable I think.

If you've watched a cock fight (not that kind, you filthy heathens), then you want no parts of that dino-sized chicken. You're basically just facing a dinosaur with a whole lot more crazy. I'd take the chicken-sized dinos, because at that size, you have a chance of defeating them individually, or even in pairs. So you can at least devise a strategy. With a dino-sized chicken, you're fucked. It wasn't the forelimbs that made those dinosaurs terrifying, it was the teeth and the legs. A chicken's beak is terrifying at scale, and give it the kicking power of an ostrich/kangaroo on top of that? Fuck no.

I think if you perform a steady retreat, in order to prevent being flanked, and you can land your kicks, you're going to injure/scare a decent number of those mini-dinos. You can pick up some rocks or stones as weapons. Maybe a stick to keep them at range. Hell, kick some dirt at them to temporarily blind or slow them. At least you have a fighting chance. But a big-ass chicken? Fuck no!

Now, swap a duck for a chicken, and it might be a different situation. A duck's bill seems less likely to maim, but I've seen those mad goose videos.

The geese by the riverside where I live are notorious for the vicious attacks they carry out on passerby’s in the morning. Fucking knobheads think they run the joint.

Simple case of the chicken or the stEGGasaurus

Edit: a while ago whilst helping out a buddy i went to a petting zoo with some preschoolers, and for some reason they had an intense range of chickens from around the world... Like 20 different species... Some of them were fucking terrifying! Like many feet tall... They even had the original chickens from like the jungles of borneo or wherever and they were pretty freaking badass fa shaw

A big chicken is still just a chicken. It's not gonna do shit. 50 dinosaurs, assuming they're like tiny raptors, would overwhelm you pretty quick

I'm curious what a fried dinosaur may taste like - so I'll go with 50 chicken sized ones. (I'm sure it would taste like... chicken)
Preferably a big legged kind, as I like the thigh meat the best.

Big one would be too hard to cook in whole or even in small sections.
