Meet the first chicken to tweet (photos)

A Chicken restaurant has taken public relations to new heights by putting a chicken in charge of its tweeter account. In the publicity stunt, the chicken's keyboard was covered in chicken feed to ensure it keeps pecking away. The company says it will keep it up until the chicken types an intelligible five letter word and takes a place in Guinness World Book Of Records as the first chicken to do so.

So far it has only managed one word, 'bum'. However not everyone sees the funny side with animal rights activist saying the restaurant uses the chicken to unwittingly promote the slaughter of fellow chicken, according to TIME magazine: "Betty is unwittingly working to promote a firm that exists only to execute and barbecue her brethren for human consumption."
