flying chicken Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
I wonder if that was the same chicken FOX used in the new "BANZAI" gameshow promo (they also attached a chicken to balloons to see how many it would take to make it fly).

One of the most pathetic and humorous things, I've ever seen was in building for raising chickens. The building are long and thin with the lenght equalling about 5 times the width. They hold a hell of a lot of chickens. We rode motorcycles to a friends father's chicken farm in the country on a quiet Sunday and he took us for a tour of the buildings. One guy that was with us left to visit some of his relatives in the area. He was riding a pretty loud bike and when he fired it up, chickens began to run to the far end of the building. When they reached the wall, it looked like a wave of water rising as chickens began to pile up about 5 ft high. The farmer ran into the pile and started throwing them out of the pile to try to save the ones on the bottom from suffacating. He lost about a dozen that day. It was crazy.

I'd say very few die of natural causes.. This flier got a new lease on life ... ".. better flier than fryer.."
Instead of being charged with animal cruelty, whoever did this should be commended.. hehe
Correct speak would say " Six billion chickens are slaughtered each year.."
