    Default Extra anus kills four-legged chick

    Extra anus kills four-legged chick
    25 October 2006
    By YVONNE TAHANA

    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."

    Looking ungainly on its extra legs but twice as cute, the bird was an exception to the rule that chickens with defects are not normally born alive.

    He was found dead on Friday and is now in the Dickeys' freezer waiting to be stuffed.

    After he's been to the taxidermist, the family plan to donate the bird to Auckland Museum.

    Shame it would have meant much less space needed per chicken leg in battery farms.

    No doubt the bosses at Tesco want to clone that fucker, with a few simple genetic adjustments they should be able to remove the surplus anus and add another set of legs. 1 pack of 6 drumsticks from one bird, fuck me, it's like an impossible dream. I believe Tesco can make it happen.
