'''Edwina''' was a character in ''[[Chicken Run]]''. She is a white chicken with a green necklace around her neck. She was killed by Mrs. Tweedy at the beginning of the film and eaten by Mr. Tweedy, because she was no longer able to lay eggs, so she was no longer useful to their cause. She refused to inform her fellow hens of her infertility, either because she didn't want to make them look infertile, and risk their lives, or because life at the farm had made her suicidally depressed.

If one analyses the death of Edwina, it becomes clear that Edwina's death may actually have been a form of suicide. These points show how this works:

*Edwina knows she hasn't laid any eggs, therefore she knows she will be killed.

*Bunty tells Ginger that she didn't tell any of the chickens about her not having laid any eggs, after Ginger asks why Bunty didn't offer any eggs to Edwina.

*It is pretty obvious that Edwina was miserable during her time in the Farm, so she may have purposefully not laid any eggs so she would be killed by the Tweedy's.

*However, during a later scene, Bunty mentions that Edwina didn't spend enough time laying and too much time escaping. This may have just been an attempt to attack Ginger, or she may have been attempting to escape too much to realise about laying eggs (Babs does this later, but is too distracted by the flying. However, Babs' punishment is much less severe, only being measured to check just how fat she is).

Edwina was a character in Chicken Run. She is a white chicken with a green necklace around her neck. She was killed by Mrs. Tweedy at the beginning of the film and eaten by Mr. Tweedy, because she was no longer able to lay eggs, so she was no longer useful to their cause. She refused to inform her fellow hens of her infertility, either because she didn't want to make them look infertile, and risk their lives, or because life at the farm had made her suicidally depressed.
