Read & See about MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN...it's true - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

When I was young, I remember reading abt this headless chicken (actually a rooster) and I was so fascinated by it. There was a major article done on it in LIFE magazine.
I had forgotten abt this story until last night when watching a documentary on animal oddities, they brought up this story. It makes for interesting conversation that's for sure.

Here is the link to the official website of this famous fowl:http://www.miketheheadlesschicken.org/story.html

First thing I did was check out Snopes on this. Couldn't find anything!

What a strange story.

I remember Ripley's Believe It Or Not actually covered this a few years ago. That IS creepy, alright.
