No fowl play as chicken leg gets the chop

A SOUTH Wales couple spent almost £2,000 (€2,955) on vet’s bills trying to save their pet chicken’s injured leg.

But Lily the Rhode Island Red still had to have the leg amputated in the end, reports the Daily Mail.

The couple from Cwmbran, Torfaen, took out a bank loan and lived on beans on toast for a year to pay £1,800 (€2,700) in vet bills after the chicken was injured.
