A four-legged hen has been rehomed after it was bullied and pecked by other chickens for being different.

The chicken on a Kairi hobby farm in North was picked on by her feathered cohorts who relentlessly pecked at her spine, putting the bird at risk of infection.

It is believed the unusual hen suffers from polymelia – a rare condition where one or more extra limbs grow – and it has been known to affect humans, too.

The owner Jess Leeming took to social media last weekend in a desperate bid to find another home for the hapless chook before her condition deteriorated.

‘I have a four-legged (yes, four-legged) young hen that needs some TLC if anyone is interested?’ the post read.
