Fortune Chicken

I came across this Dutch "Fortune Chicken" ($19) today and had to put it on the blog immediately. I'm not sure exactly what it is or the history (if there is one), but here's what I do know: it's a 3"x3" chicken with the simple instructions of, "Smash this chicken in times of confusion or great despair". To smash or not to smash? The choice is all yours...
