Wahey! Throw enough shit against the wall, some of its bound to stick!

OK. We all know that a chicken can still run about after it's had its head chopped off.

But what is the longest recorded time a chicken has lived for after it has been decapitated?

If he was a tourist attraction I'm guessing a long time, 6 months?

Cheers Rob :lol:
