Alien ChickenWhy did the chicken cross the road? To hide in shame in some bushes! This naked chicken may someday end up in your KFC family bucket.
This is the supposed story:
"JERUSALEM -- Seedless watermelon was one thing, but a featherless chicken? An Israeli researcher is growing bald birds that will stay cool in the sultry Middle East and other hot regions. The less fatty, crossbred chickens will fare better in tropical climates, where expensive cooling systems are needed to raise poultry, Hebrew University's Avigdor Cahaner said Tuesday. The new birds are also better for the environment because the absence of feathers eliminates the need for water and electricity to run machinery in processing them for food. "We're talking about sustainable agriculture. Farming should be aimed at reducing waste," Cahaner said. He crossbred normal chickens with birds already partly bald because of a naturally occurring "naked neck" gene. The result is a somewhat funny-looking, normal sized boiler chicken that carries the special naked gene."
The real story is that this extraterrestrial chicken was dropped from a flying saucer near Art Bell's desert home. Art found it, fried it, lost half his brain and turned into George Noory.
The moral of this story - don't eat naked fried chickens.
