But like Jim said, I'm just worried about all the people that tried to recreate this same scenario that is what hurts me. @Erin

If I human had it's head removed and it lived without machines, just help with feedings, I hope we would test to see how it would survive. The chicken walks around with the others and does not look in serious pain. Yes it would have hurt at the time of removal, but we don't murder people because they are in pain.

It sure looks weird, that's for sure. Poor thing. I’ve heard of Mike the Headless Chicken, but I’ve never seen pictures until now. It sure looks weird, that’s for sure. Poor thing.

The chicken had it's head cut-off, it doesn't know it's rights are being violated. I can guarantee it was gunna be supper that night until it got up and started walking around. You weirdos should be happy they didn't kill the thing. 2 years is quite a long life span for what should have been dinner. Heck, I bet it was none the wiser. Are you kidding me?
