the RAF had a chicken gun, it was a catapult contraption that sat at the end of a test runway and fired chickens (dead and plucked i presume) at light speed into the jet engines and canopys of planes(grounded planes that is) to test for bird strikes

. . . and British Rail borrowed it to test the high speed train. Concerned by the devestation it caused on the first tests they phoned the RAF about the problem.

After a quick check of their data the RAF replied "You're supposed to defrost the bloody chickens!"

The egg came first. Dinosaurs layed eggs, and birds evolved from there.

What came first the chickenegg or the chicken? is a whole new question though.
