One day a travelling salesman was driving down the country road at about 30 mph when he noticed a three-legged chicken running alongside his car.
He stepped on the gas, but the chicken was still keeping up. After about a mile, the chicken ran up a farm lane and into a barn behind an old farmhouse. The salesman turned around and drove up the farm lane.
He knocked at the door, and when the farmer answered, he told him what he had just seen. The farmer said that he was a geneticist and had developed this breed of chicken because he, his wife and son like drumstick.
“That’s the most fantastic thing I’ve ever heard,” said the salesman. “How do they taste?”
“I don’t know,” said the farmer. “We’ve never caught one.”
A chicken farmer went to the local bar. He sat next to a woman and ordered champagne.
The woman said: “How strange, I also just ordered a glass of champagne.”
“What a coincidence,” said the farmer, who added, ” It is a special day for me. I am celebrating.”
“It is a special day for me too, I am also celebrating!” said the woman.
“What a coincidence!” said the farmer. While they toasted, the farmer asked, “What are you celebrating?”
“My husband and I have been trying to have a child for years, and today, my gynecologist told me that I was pregnant.”
“What a coincidence,” said the man. “I am a chicken farmer and for years all my hens were infertile, but now they are all set to lay fertilized eggs.”
“This is incredible,” said the woman. “What did you do for your chickens to become fertile?”
“I used a different rooster,” he said.
“What a coincidence.” Smiled the woman.
Three sons left home to make their fortunes, and they all did very, very well for themselves.
They got together recently and were discussing what they each had done to benefit their aging mother. ‘Well,’ said the first one, ‘I bought mom a huge house in Beverly Hills.’
‘I bought her a Mercedes and hired a full-time driver for her.’
‘I’ve beaten you both,’ said the third. ‘I bought her a miraculous parrot that can talk to her.’
A little later, the mother sent out a thank you letter to all three sons.
‘Gerald, the house you bought was too big. I only live in one room, and I have to clean the entire house. Milton, the car is useless because I don’t go anywhere; I’m too old. But Robert, you know exactly what I like. The chicken was delicious.’
