SOMERSET, Pennsylvania (AP) -- Henrietta the chicken was living inconspicuously for 18 months among 36,000 other chickens at Brendle Farms - until a farm foreman discovered she had four legs.

Farm-owner Mike Brendle was amazed by the discovery among his standard two-legged, egg-laying hens.

"It's as healthy as the rest," he said.

Brendle's 13-year-old daughter, Ashley, named the bird Henrietta after the discovery. It has two normal front legs and, behind those, two more feet. They are of a similar size to the chicken's front legs, but do not function. The chicken drags her extra feet behind her. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/F/FOUR_LEGGED_CHICKEN?SITE=FLTAM&SECTION=ENTERTAINMENT
 
Poor chicken.If I owned the egg farm I would make the poor little hen the 'mascot' and give her a nice free range life. I like chickens they are sweet birds.
