Chicken Heaven - The Theme Park Egg that never hatched.
April 3rd, 2008 by PickardJim Moore was a man on a mission, a mission to open a chicken theme park. With many acres of land in Rosedale, Georgia, Moore launched his dream (primarily in his head) and took his idea to an American reality show - The Great American Dream Vote. Moore felt let down by the show’s producers as they packaged his work as a chicken amusement park, whereas he felt it was more of a chicken educational centre. Moore eventually lost out to a Basset Hound Rescue Centre, who would have seen that coming!
I would like to see what would have happened if the American public had seen the true promise in such a fantastic idea! CHICKENS EVERYWHERE, what could be better than that! With the current popularity of shows such as the American Inventor and Dragon’s Den in the UK, Moore should make one last attempt to get some financial backing for his crusade!
The concept of Chicken Heaven is a little confusing to say the least. Moore sees it as a series of lit paths into various pens displaying many different chicken breeds. I have been to farms and zoos and in my opinion they are a little smelly and the chickens are possibly the most boring animal to look at! Their range of skills and tricks are limited and would probably not really welcome return visitors, although Moore would ensure repeat viewings with featured breeds and even rides! Now you’re talking Jimbo!
Jim Moore loves chickens and i’m with him now!! Make it happen, we believe!

Hey Adrenaline Guy!
I actually found the story on a website about the quirkier parts of the USA called roadsideamerica.com. It reminds of the sort of thing that might appear in a David Lynch film and would not have looked out of place in the Twin Peaks TV series.
I don’t think it will ever happen as Moore has yet to make anything more than a couple of drawings that his cat apparently ate! Still there’s plenty of money about so someone may throw him a (chicken) bone and fund his crazy plans!
Keep the Chicken Heaven dream alive people! You know it makes (non)sense!!
