Do Chickens File Income Taxes?
Yes- but not every year Why not every year?
It’s complicated. What do you mean it’s complicated, these are chickens?
They live on chicken feed and they got no fingers to count on so it’s hard for them to figure out how many dependents they have, so every ten years or so the elders pool their money and hire a census taker What happens then?
The census taker; a big rooster takes all the hot young chicks under his wing and they go to this ranch in Vegas where they teach them how to scratch off the numbers!
