As Mr. Taloola was relieved of his head yesterday, he didn’t realise it for a couple of minutes. Perhaps he wanted to kiss his girlfirends (Daisy and Cornflower) goodbye before he went to the big chicken coop in the sky. We need our inner-ears to keep balance, maybe that’s why Taloola couldn’t walk straight…

I remembered reading a story once about a rooster who survived quite a while after being beheaded. Just how long?

1.5 years.

I kid you not. It’s name was Mike… Mike the chicken. He lived in the 40′s and has quite a following. Check out his website here:
