On a dusty farm in Fruita, Colorado, September 10, 1945, a weathered farmer raises his axe, aiming for the neck of a rooster. It’s a routine chore—dinner for the family. The blade falls and the head rolls away. But then, something impossible happens. The headless body doesn’t flop lifeless to the ground. It staggers, rights itself, and walks away. This is no ordinary chicken. Welcome to today’s tale that blurs the line between science and the supernatural, a story so strange it’s haunted history for nearly eight decades. For 18 months, a chicken lived without a head leaving us wondering: was this just a freak of nature, or did something unearthly keep him going? Join us today as we venture Within the Mists of Colorado to tell of Miracle Mike.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.
