Unusually Big Chicken Is Making Headlines After Freaking Out The Internet

Recently, the internet has freaked out over an unusually big chicken. The video of the “monstrous bird” has been shared on twitter and Facebook and is quickly going viral.

According to some Twitter speculators, the monstrous chicken overlord is a brahma chicken A.K.A. the “King of all poultry” according to the Livestock Conservancy.

Brahma chickens have been known to reached the weights of 13-14 pounds for females and 17 to 18.25 pounds for males. While controversy exists about the origins of the breed, the Conservancy writes that the breed was “developed in America from very large fowls imported from China via the port of Shanghai.”

This particular giant dog-sized chicken seems to belong to a guy called Fitim Sejfijaj, who posted the video to a Kosovo-based Facebook group called Shpeztaria Dekorative, which translates to “decorative poultry.” If Facebook’s translator is anything to go by, the chicken’s name seems to be “Merakli”, and it’s receiving plenty of praise from fellow chicken lovers.
