    Technical the Chicken should be carrying a clump of period cells - that’s what Chicken eggs are: Chicken periods.

    Eggs don’t have to be fertilized to be eggs. But they do to become chicks… Just like human periods have to be fertilized to become babies.

    So the chicken is wrong for taking a baby, that’s not the equivalent to an unfertilized egg… A period is.

      Unfortunately I don’t think Gary Larson drawing a chicken holding a bloody tampon would get past the censors but it would make more sense and be way funnier.

        How many times do I have to tell you? Jacking off on chicken eggs is not going to create a human/rooster hybrid.

        Now pull your pants up and get off my farm before I call the cops!

      During their periods, women jettison one (usually) egg, but also, for the most part, the lining of their uterus (the endometer) . The egg itself is lost amidst the deluge of blood and meat. Also the egg can’t be taken out and just exposed to moderate heat to produce a child. You need the fertilised egg to stay inside for nine months.

      On the other hand, a fertilised chicken egg just needs heat. It’s a self contained unit that can develop without the mother.

      So I reckon a chicken egg is closer to a human baby really. Also it’s easier for the joke, visually (an ovum is tiny)
