The old man with too much time on his hands tried to get a chicken to cluck to music, he played a tune on his mouth harmonic and fed it grain, nothing and he came to the conclusion that chickens are stupid, only a fried one is a good fowl. The bird belonged to his neighbour, who has a chicken coop, scrawny looking lot with matted feathers, While the chicken he had tried to train was fat; the neighbour killed it for his dinner, and didn't even give the old man a leg.
