If you put a chicken on the ground on it's back, calm it down and put it's head under one of it's wings, it stays put for a abnormally long time ? Try it if you don't believe me...

Wow, that's really interesting. The only other interesting chicken fact I can pitch in with is that chickens can run around with their heads chopped off. Maybe I'll try your trick when we get new ducks (they're not for eating, just for our pond) next year. I don't think it would work on a duck, but who knows.

We used to do something like that with our chickens: We'd hold them in our hands, tuck the head under the wing, start petting the bird, and within a few seconds - BOOM! Out like a light.
But then, because we were kids, we throw the sleeping chicken straight up in the air. The bird would get to the top of the arc, wake up, and fly back down to the ground as if nothing had happened. It was funny, though, watching the reaction as they woke up. For just a second, the chicken's movements were like, "Oh my God! How did I get up here!!?? Oh, wait, that's right: I can fly. Oh, hey, food!"
We weren't really being cruel, as this didn't hurt the bird. Just the kind of fun kids living with animals have.
Nowadays, as I'm more grown-up, I keep my level of animal mischief down to humiliating my frozen Thanksgiving turkey before I cook it, by posing it in funny ways, using it as a puppet, interviewing it with a microphone then insulting it when it doesn't reply, that sort of thing.

If you draw a line in the dirt and put it's beak on the line while the chicken is on it's stomache it stays there for a long time, too.

If you put the chicken's head under her wing, she will go to sleep...

Did you know that if you hold a lobster upside down for several minutes it falls into a coma-like state and you can pose it in various funny positions?
