The chicken would have turned invisible as a wraith pretty quickly, and I bet it would have been powerful enough to escape the leash

Also, the Ring was trying to get back to its master. If it realized the chicken wasn't corruptible, it would have abandoned the chicken at the first chance it got.

Assuming that animals are corruptible, what animal would the ring go for if humanoids weren't an option?
A goose? Could fly the ring to Sauron

Are you suggesting evil rings migrate?

Maybe they used Gondorian or Arnorian swallows

depends on if a single ring counts as laden or unladen

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Laden if unequipped. Unladen if equipped.

Based on it just sitting on a stream bed for thousands of years after isildur was killed gotta at least have more intelligence than a fish.

Had Isildur been slain by the sea or around a mangrove, a crab would've picked the ring. Rise, Evil Craubron, servant of the Dark Lord

the Ring is treacherous and may just dissapear by itself.
