"It WAS trying to cross the road, no joke."
Speaking to the Evening News Mr Gisbon added: "I was going shopping with my mate, I am disabled and Jimmy helps me.
"I thought he was telling a joke at first, then I realised it was a chicken. We totally buckled and were in stitches."
After the incident at around 11.30am on Wednesday, the chicken was eventually returned to its rightful owner who posted on Facebook: "She's home! Took a wander down Kaimes Road, thanks for the spot Shauny!"
Mr Gibson added: "The owner posted pictures of the chicken safe at home on Facebook. There are about 500 reactions to it too, hilarious stuff."
