A tractor company sales rep was driving down a rural road when he suddenly saw this chicken race up next to him. He looked at the instrument panel and saw that he was doing 30 MPH!
Then suddenly the chicken sped up and cut in front of the car taking a side road to the right.
As the chicken crossed his path, the driver was sure he saw something unbelievable -- the chicken appeared to have 3 legs.
Without hesitation, the salesman took the right turn and followed the chicken to a large farm.
Seeing a farmer by the barn, he drove up, greeted the man, and asked, "Did you see a chicken go speeding by here?"
The farmer smiled and said, "Yes, sir. I sure did."
The man then asked, "Am I crazy, or did the chicken have 3 legs?"
"Oh, no, You're not seeing things. That chicken definitely had 3 legs. In fact, I created that breed myself."
The salesman was surprised. "That's amazing. Why would you do something like that?"
"Well, when it was just the two of us, my wife, Mabel, and I always liked drumsticks best. But, when Junior came along and was able to eat table food, we didn't have enough drumsticks to go around. Cooking up 2 chickens created another problem: who gets the extra drumstick? So, I did some reading and experimenting, and i came up with my 3-legged chickens."
The man was astounded. "My hat's off to you, sir. I'm truly impressed. So, tell me, do they taste any different?"
The farmer said, "Don't know. Haven't been able to catch one yet!"
