12121212. Hey, how come none of these chickens have got four legs. Chickens don't have four legs. Oh, yes, they do. You want me to take him out? All right. He probably won't like this real well. Matt Duncan owns *** living example. His £7 broiler really has four legs. 123, the bird's name 4runner. And he really can run two legs, do the work, the others just sort of get in the way. I was thinking maybe the circus could take him. It's in town now, you know, Duncan and his brother run *** chicken processing operation for runner was on the fast track to, you know what? That's when his extra legs saved him. He was spared. The ax for runner is from the Fort Calhoun area. So there are plenty of jokes about how he may have taken *** radiation hit. But the real reason for the extra appendages, I don't know for sure. Could have been *** double yoke bag or something weird. Most of four runners buddies only live *** few months before they end up on someone's dinner table. His extra limbs have bought him some extra time from the news. Watch seven live. I'm.
