I found this on the website called Air 1 about this chicken named Big Mama. I thought it was a nice story and wanted to share it with BYC. Here is the link.

Aww what a wonderful tribute!

Question though -- why would someone spay a chicken?

Nice homage to Big Mama.

@peckpeckpeck I was kind of surprised by that too

Maybe the original owners were worried about unwanted litters

I think they probably had the hen in diapers and they didn't want her laying any eggs in the diapers.

Lol, they would literally be “butt nuggets” as some of us call them
