IME a bit of a computer dummy, dont know what a google link is, but sevaral people have said that when i told them but its as true as ime sat sitting here, try searching jeeves or something, its common to shoot them in the wild as almost impossible to catch. Regards Harry

Sounds like they are related to the Haggis Bird?

lol.... yes .. when I were a lad we were poor ( the sound of the Hovis music plays in the background ) I mean really poor. I used to have to go downt road to knackers yard and get sheeps head for boiling up in stew . Mum always told me to tell the knacker man to leave the eyes in, so it would see us through the week !!!!

I also knew a farmer that crossed a chicken with a millipede , a chickypede !!!. Crap at egg laying ... but loads of legs to eat...

cheers

I happen to know that the story about a chickypeed is untrue as i know the farmer that crossed them and he told me when i asked him what they tasted like he said, "Buggered if i know i havnt managed to catch on yet, you know how they can run with 2 legs so no chance with these.". Dont tell me about being poor as when i was born in the 1949 when i was about 5 in the 50s i had to go out after dark to nick the neighbours rubbish so we had something to put out for the bin men.

Its really a french plot. The idea is to sell all these 4 legged chickens to breeders, who then cant catch them, then we sell our birds to you at very inflated prices.
