Chips can make your cock lose its spunk

Thailand's agriculture minister has stepped in to block a plan to embed monitoring microchips in fighting cocks.
According to www.Kstat.com, Sora-at Klinpratoom was worried that the silicon chips could hamper the ability of the cocks to impress other birds.
Thai authorities decided to start getting bird owners to register their cocks as part of an effort to prevent diseases after the recent bird flu outbreak.
The Cabinet has already given approval in principle to the plan. But the agriculture minister says according to his information the chips "tickle" the cocks. Apparently, a tickled cock slows down when it approaches its opponent and loses its spunk.
