The chicken and the duck from Friends were said to have either died or gone to a special farm.
The Disappearance and Explanations
The Chick and the Duck, beloved pets belonging to Joey and Chandler, were notably absent from the show for a period until they reappeared briefly in the Friends series finale episode. During this finale, two distinct explanations were offered for their whereabouts:
- Rachel's Account: Rachel Green stated that the pets had sadly died a few years prior. This was one of the few instances of character or pet deaths directly mentioned within the Friends series.
- Phoebe's Reassurance: Phoebe Buffay quickly interrupted Rachel, assuring Joey that the Chick and the Duck were actually living at a "special farm" that did not allow visitors. This comforting explanation was likely given to shield Joey from the truth about his beloved companions.
Ultimately, the show presented both possibilities, leaving the final fate of the Chick and the Duck open to interpretation, though Phoebe's version was clearly intended to provide comfort.
