[QUOTE="Raido Free America, post: 3696693, member: 45328"] A good chicken story..........Just after WW2 my father was going to school at Arkansas Tech Univeserty on the the G.I. bill. Dr. Thompson the head of the Ag. department was experimenting, trying to develop a better commercial breed of chickens. Dad was somehow connected with this reserch, and was one of the first farmers in N.W. Arkaksas to go into the commercial chicken business, on a large scale. I was just a kid, too young to be in school, and my mother worked in town while trying to get this venture off the ground. I would occasionally go with dad to Dr. Thompson's farm, where he was devoloping these different types of chickens. He even developed one with three legs, more drumsticks! At the time this seemed to be a major break-thorough, but like most things that work well in the lab, the real world exposes unexpected problems! What happened was with three legs no one could catch these chickens!!!!!!!!! There is rumored to be a wild flock of three legged chickens roaming the Ozarks to this day, but if true thay are so fast, no one has been able to get a photo of them!! [/QUOTE]
