A fire-breathing chicken[1] was a magical breed of chicken that possessed the ability to breathe fire, very similar to the dragon.[2]
History
Bob holding one of these creatures in a cardboard box
One of these creatures was confiscated by Bob of the British Ministry of Magic in 1995, as the creature was considered a major violation of the Ban on Experimental Breeding. The chicken was put inside a large cardboard box, whose air holes would frequently light up due to the bird's fiery exhalations. The box was most likely enchanted to prevent it from catching fire. The box and the chicken were taken by Bob to the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures.[2]
Several fire-breathing chickens appeared throughout the Wizarding world during the Calamity in the 2010s, in which they acted as Confoundable guards to certain Foundables, such as Kneazles. Volunteer members of the Statute of Secrecy Task Force had to cast the Ebublio Jinx to trap these chickens in large bubbles, allowing the Foundables to return to their rightful places.[1]
In the 2010s, Rubeus Hagrid, after undergoing hours of positive reinforcement through the use of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, was able to train fire-breathing chickens to hold their fire at a consistent temperature and to change the flames' temperature on command, enabling them to heat up cauldrons much quicker, with only the occasional burn risk. This technique helped enable members of the Statute of Secrecy Task Force to increase the duration of the Baruffio's Brain Elixir brewed within these cauldrons.[1]
A Calamity Investigator working for the task force later found a large number of fire-breathing chickens underneath an inn in Brondby, Denmark. As the creatures had become a delicacy after being revealed to actually exist to wizardkind at large, the Calamity Investigator brought the chickens back to the British Ministry of Magic. As a reward for their efforts, Minister for Magic Hermione Granger secured higher-energy meals at wizarding bed and breakfast inns for the Calamity Investigator.[1]
