The construction of human-animal relationships should not be limited to visits to recreational areas; rather, it is necessary to deepen people's awareness of animal ethics through daily life practices. This paper examines the operation of the Hsinchu“Bao-Wen”chicken coop and proposes the concept of everyday animal ethics, exploring how volunteers participating in the warming chicken coop can, through their daily care actions, feel the feedback provided by the chickens on the one hand, and reflect on the limited space of the zoo on the other hand, in an attempt to construct a ''new relationship between humans and chickens'' in the urban area. This paper adopts an ethnographic narrative approach, with participant observation and semi-structured in-depth interviews, to understand the day-to-day practices of the volunteers who keep the chicken sheds warm, their caring skills, and their experiences with the chickens. This paper finds that most of the volunteers have a certain level of knowledge about animal or environmental issues, and on the basis of this, supplemented by the daily practice of chicken care, they gradually develop the tactics of urban public chicken keeping through daily practice, which not only accumulates over time but also significantly influences the dynamics of human-animal relationships and the use of public spaces. Although the construction of“Bao-Wen”chicken coop still subject to the Government's influence in one way or another, this paper argues that it does not affect the existing impression of challenging the urban public space and the construction of animal ethics. However, this paper argues that it does not diminish the perception of challenging the construction of urban public space and animal ethics, because the emergence of insulated chicken coops attracts urban residents to explore different experiences of animal contact than those in strategic frameworks, and to realize the significance and value of daily life practices through the tactics of chicken farming. |
