While driving down any roadside, a giant chicken will certainly make you stop and take notice, and indeed we did. And the cool thing about this one is if you have $1700 laying around, it can be yours!
Proudly overlooking route 22 in Duncannon PA, this big bird is for sale at Farmer Boy Furniture. I immediately thought of the Fiberglass Rooster Conspiracy as outlined over at RoadsideGalore, and had to snap a photo to add to Fuzzy’s map of oversized broilers!
Nothing says “we’re on a road trip” more than seeing an oversized tacky animal when out for a drive!

The one we found was in Berrien Springs in Michigan:

And yes, we will add one or two of these to our “family” at some point!

May 22, 2010 at 8:20 pmOne of our regrets about going to Lake Geo on the off season is that not everything was open- and the oversized everything at Magic Forest taunted us as we drove past the closed signs every day.
Am SO curious as to how you folks found your family? I could see us adding a statue or two to the Hacienda at some point!
