There are chickens. And then there is “Big Chicken.”
CNN reports video of a giant rooster squeezing out of his far-too-modest coop is taking the Internet by storm, ruffling the feathers of those who prefer their poultry pint-sized. Is the monster fowl the real deal or, as some conjecture, a large child in a chicken suit?

The report says the chicken in the video is not a fake — it is a breed known as Brahma chicken that was bred in the U.S. to feed a growing demand for poultry. (For real, though. How many Popeyes Family Meals do you think you can get out of this thing?)
The result is a chicken that has Twitter and Facebook users either gaping in wonder or cowering in fear at the pre-historic looking beast.
Which side are you on?
