After slaughtering a family chicken that hadn’t laid a single egg in five years, a woman found a tennis-ball sized brown object inside its belly, which may earn her up to an equivalent of $350,000.
The spherical object is referred to as “chicken gold” or “chicken treasure” in China where it is a highly valued food. When it occurs naturally, it is worth up to an equivalent of $3,000 per gram (0.03 ounces), according to a video report by Sichuan Pear, a local Chinese news outlet, on April 2.
