Charleston's "Most Wanted Chicken" Finally Apprehended After Days on the LamWell, the city is now finally safe from the talons of the foul fugitive!All jokes aside, the city of Charleston, Indiana, posted a "Charleston's Most Wanted" poster on Facebook asking about the whereabouts of a chicken called “Chicken Sue.” Officials were concerned that if this animal was not found, it could end up as roadkill. A day after the poster was uploaded, the chicken was safely apprehended and was successfully turned over to New Washington Animal Services. It will be held as a stray for a time so that its owner can come forward to take her back, or else it will be rehomed. Image credit: City of Charlestown, Indiana#chicken #lostchicken #Charlseton #Indiana #mostwanted #animals 
Lost Rooster Became a Mascot at a Louisiana's Popeye Fast Food RestaurantOrdering a three-piece combo comes with a free side.. a crowing rooster.“It’s like he knows we’re watching him. It’s like he wants everybody to come to see him, look at my feathers, listen to me crow,” said Muhassin Shepherd, General Manager of the Popeyes Restaurant on Gause Boulevard in Slidell, Louisiana.Sheperd said the rooster appeared the day after Hurricane Ida and never left. When he asked around where the chicken might have come from, the people from neighborhood said, ‘it’s not our chicken.’Employees named the "lost chicken" Rocco and built him a coop — you can’t miss it in the drive-through.
Popeye's Fried Chicken Outlet Adopts Stray RoosterPeople love that chicken at Popeyes. Yes, the slogan is actually "Love that chicken from Popeyes," but this story is about a chicken who went to live at Popeyes! The fast food restaurant in Slidell, Louisiana, has a mascot. A rooster started hanging around right after Hurricane Ida in September of last year, and never left. The employees named him Rocco and built him a small coop on the far side of the drive-through lanes. Rocco became a hit with customers, but still no one claimed him. So he became part of the business.​General Manager Muhassin Shepherd says that customers flock to the restaurant to see Rocco, and he's became quite a draw, preening, posing, and crowing for the lines of cars. Some even stop to feed the rooster, although we assume it's something other than their spicy fried chicken. Rocco appears to be enjoying his fame, and is not at all shy about interacting with customers and staff. One has to wonder if Rocco has any idea what kind of food they serve to their customers. -via Boing Boing #chicken #rooster #friedchicken #Popeyes
Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road? To Steal the Pentagon's SecretsOn the morning of January 31, 2022, Pentagon security caught a suspicious two-legged creature trying to get inside one of the most secure places on the face of the earth. It was said to have been sneaking around the security area of the building.Together, the Animal Welfare League of Arlington and Pentagon officers caught the creature in question. Now you might ask, "why was the former involved in the incident?" That's because the sneaky figure was a chicken (or is it really a chicken?). As they stated on their Facebook post, the Animal Welfare League of Arlington kept the chicken in custody as they looked for a proper shelter for the animal. The league also asked for suggestions on what they should name the chicken. The organization went with "Henny Penny."(Image Credit: Animal Welfare League of Arlington/ Facebook)#Funny #Chicken #Pentagon
Morning Rush Hour at the Caenhill Countryside Centre Animal Rescue FarmIt's another great day for the animals, and they're very excited to come out of the barn to eat at their favorite spot on the farm.As the jolly man opens the door, the ostriches come out first, followed by the geese, chickens, and a literally black sheep. They eat alongside the pigs.The donkeys, meanwhile, were left behind inside the barn, so the man went to them and gave one a carrot.What an adrenaline-filled morning.(Video Credit: Caenhill Countryside Centre/ YouTube)#GoodVibes #Wholesome #Animals #ostrich #goose #chicken
This New Zealand School Is Using a Chicken as a Traffic OfficerAs far as the safety of children go, we should go with whatever works, right? At a preschool in New Zealand, that means the job of street crossing guard is filled by a hen named Henry. The policing poultry is named Henry, and according to The Washington Post, she’s being used as a sentry for Newstead Country Preschool located near a farm in Newstead, New Zealand. Farm owner (and school principal) Tracy Trigg outfits Henry with a fluorescent safety vest, then sets her out to wander the parking lot. Because parents dropping off their kids know about Henry, they drive slowly and cautiously in the lot.​See more of Henry at Facebook. #hen #chicken #crossingguard
