Holding a chicken

Why is it that when you hold a chicken, and move its body back and forth slowly, its head will stay stationary?

  2. I've never done that. I'll try it next time I hold a chicken.

  3. I thought that thought (as a wee lad many moons ago) when observing a robin land on a small branch. The branch bounced up and down but the robin's head was perfectly still.

  4. maybe chickens have some kind of secret training lab for queer and odd body movements
