Did you find your answer for the Dr Dolittle riddle? Here is the answer to all those who want to see if their Dr Dolittle riddle answer is correct or not.
The correct answer for the Dr Dolittle riddle is "Six".
How is answer 6?
The answer to this riddle is six. Some people think the answer to be zero. Because when u look at the question, all the animals listed are on the bed and the chickens flying is a distraction. So they end up giving the answer zero to it. But, it is wrong. Some might have said 'two' considering the leg of the person who walked in. Still, it is wrong.
Here is the trick to solve this riddle. Though all the animals are on the bed, the bed itself has four legs. In addition to that, two legs of the person walking into the room make it a total of six legs. One should note that Dr Dolittle riddle did not ask a specific pair of legs, any pair of legs can be taken into consideration.
Also, there are some people, who point out that not all the beds have legs and the bed sits directly on the floor. In such a case, the answer becomes "2" legs. In this case, only the man’s pair of legs have to be taken into consideration.
So, the right answer or the most accepted answer for the Dr Dolittle riddle is six legs. Four legs of the bed and two of the man who walks into the room. Arguably, based on the type of bed, if the bed is directly on the floor (without any legs), the answer can be two legs.
