During a regular day of shechita of chickens in an Eida Chareidis chicken slaughterhouse, one chicken was detected having three legs.

The rav of the slaughterhouse, rav of the shechita and Rav Bentzion Bayer Shlita checked into the matter towards determining the halachic status of the chicken.

Rav Bentzion Bayer, the rav of the slaughterhouse, checked the bird carefully and ultimately ruled it to be treif because the third leg was connected to the bird’s intestines.
