You don't need to know what a chicken believes to recognize that their behaviours indicate they do not want others to steal their eggs.

as far as i know, chickens don't recognize property claims. they cannot possibly have a moral opposition or even a personal revulsion toward theft.

Let’s say they don’t recognize property claims. Why does that then make it right for you to take their eggs?

Many say the native Americans didn’t understand the European concept of owning land (property claim). I’m not sure whether that’s true, but if it were would that then mean it was okay for Europeans to take their land?

Your logic doesn’t make sense to me. “They can’t say ‘no’ and they probably don’t understand property so I’ll just go ahead and do what I want.” Lame
