Chickenhare is the titular main protagonist of Netflix's featured film Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness. He is part hare, part chicken.
He is voiced by Thomas Solivéres.
Chickenhare was created by Chris Grines.
Appearance[]
Chickenhare appears at the beginning of the film as a short and slim anthropomorphic hybrid of a chicken and a hare with blue eyes, brown and white fur, long drooping ears, and chicken legs that extend beyond his knees. Wearing an outfit reminiscent of Indiana Jones, he appears to be dressed as an explorer. The brown fedora, the leather jacket, even the lasso, are similar to Indiana Jones, but he also wears a sleeveless green shirt tucked into his grey firm fitting culottes, which are held in place by a brown leather belt. It is common for him to cover the top of his head with a brown fedora and his legs with fake rabbit feet and stirrup boots when he goes out in public.
During the middle of the film, he loses his fake legs after being trapped in quicksand and being pulled out by Meg, and later on, he loses his jacket to a tribe of pigs, allowing him to run more freely and dodge the darts of the pig tribe with his arm feathers. Eventually, he removed his hat, gaining confidence in his appearance.
It is only towards the end of the film that he is wearing only his green sleeveless shirt and gray culottes, but is now wearing a brown leather sleeveless crop top vest, and his ears are up, as opposed than being droopy throughout the film.
Biography[]
Chickenhare is found by the king and his brother Lapin, upon seeing the mysterious creature, the king decided to adopt him as his son and so affectionately nicknamed him Chickenhare.

But he ended up failing and he didn't join the club and that was the only chance he had, even if his father was king he couldn't make an exception. so to prove his worth to his father he decided to board on a journey to find the dark hamster a staff of cosmic and phenomenal powers that anyone who unleashes the spirit within can use it to rule the world.
He along with his servant Abe went to jail to borrow his uncle lapin's book, but ended up being tricked by him and couldn't get it. The day after their day out of jail with his henchmen, Chickenhare and Abe find a map painted on the wall in the scene that shows the Dark Hamster's exact location, so Chickenhare and Abe set out on a boat in search of this valuable treasure.
