Extra anus kills four-legged chick
Forzie the four-legged chicken will cluck no more. The Te Uku-bred Barnevelder chick - hatched at Marlene Dickey's property at the start of last month - has died. But it wasn't the extra legs that led to its death, more likely an extra anus, Mrs Dickey believes.
"He developed two bottoms and I think he got glugged up," she said.
While she was surprised by Forzie's death - he weighed a "good pound of butter" and was gaining feathers slowly - it was not totally unexpected, she said. And it was fun while it lasted.
"He was a bit of a laugh." [...]
He was found dead on Friday and is now in the Dickeys' freezer waiting to be stuffed.
Perfecting the four-legged chicken was Colonel Sanders' great unrealized dream, of course.
"Sorry, Colonel, we've tried. But that shit just won't work."
