Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox poultry breed

Ayam Ketawa, or "laughing chicken", is a breed of chicken originating from the area of Sidenreng Rappang in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. It is one of several breeds of long-crowing chicken prized for the clarity and unusual length of their crows. The crow of Ayam Ketawa cocks has an unusual similarity to a human laugh. The breed was originally held as a status symbol of the Buginese royal family, but has entered into higher popularity in recent times since the fall of the monarchy.[1] Today it is still seen as a symbol of courage, social status and heroism[2][3] and they compete in contests for the most perfect crow, for the Governor of Sulawesi Cup.[4]

Names

In Indonesian the breed is known as Шаблон:Lang, meaning "laughing chicken", or as Шаблон:Lang; in Buginese it is called Шаблон:Lang or just Шаблон:Lang (literally Stammering Chicken).[5]

Breeders have various names for types of Ayam Ketawa based on the length and frequency of their crows and "laughs", such as Шаблон:Lang (slow), Шаблон:Lang (fast), slow, and disco.[6]
