With a starting bid of less than a buck, and shipping at around $50, you know we’ve got something special on our hands. Apparently, this auctioneer was boiling eggs for Easter, and noticed one of the eggs open up during the boiling. And lo and behold, a chick hatched!

Actually, it was just bits of the boiled egg that popped out and formed a semblance of an actual chick. Having said that, if you’d like to bid on an item that resembles a chick being boiled alive, then go for it. If you see that this item sells, let me know. Because then I’ll try selling the story of how my dad hit a rabbit on easter — not kidding!
