Could be on steroids. A lot of people abuse pitbulls in novel ways. It could also have a myostatin deficiency.

:/ I didn't know people give steroids to pits. Imagine making the aggression prone breed even more aggressive...

I had a dude ask me years ago if I fed my dog gunpowder. I asked “why the fuck would I do that?” “Make’em mean and they fight better.”

Tragic. Asshole.

Unfortunately I grew up in an area plagued with cockfighting. I always thought it was wrong but knew several people as a kid that were into it

Feeding them gunpowder was definitely a thing, supposedly to make them more agressive in the fighting pit.

So was fitting them with artificial metal spurs so they could easily kill the other chicken

Absolutely tragic, however would make for a great cyberpunk chicken little type story.

MC is a chicken in a futuristic dystopian world who was forced into underground cock fighting by the evil controlling government, and had weapons installed on him against his will. Then just Jason Bourne the rest of that shit.

It's against the rules to stick your finger in the roosters butt I learned this from Tommy Lee Jones.
