      First, what did the chicken ever do to you?!?

      We have absolutely no idea. Blackholes are one of the universes big mysteries. As far as I know about blackholes the chicken wouldn’t have a very good time and would be crushed and compressed to the point where it couldn’t be compressed any more. If Blackholes lead to another dimension or something we haven’t found a way to prove it yet.

      It will probably end up in the singularity at the bottom of the black hole. It is thought that the gravity at the botton of the black hole is so strong that all teh subatomic particles that make up atoms (electrons protons neutrons) get crushed into a mush – so even the atoms that made up the chicken will no longer exists.
