Famous animal-of-the-day award goes to a curly-feathered chicken from China's Henan Province whose unique perm-like look surely impressed all the hens at the farm.

The famous cockerel used to look like an ordinary chicken in his first months after hatching, but then his appearance started to change and his quills started to curl, making him a local attraction.

The animal looks like he just got a plume-perm as his black and brown feathers are all curled up to the ends. His photos spread all over the Internet, like all the unusual things reported in the world, and turned the animal from a local attraction into a worldwide sensation.

I must say he seems to enjoy the media's attention as he flashes his perfect curls around the farm like a diva and ruffles his feathers all over the social media sites. I don't think someone could have pulled off that type of feather curling even if they tried.
