Woman Goes Viral With Her 'Chicken Pumpkin Carving' Contest On TikTok—And The Results Are Impressive

TikToker @lissieasebes decided to let her chickens do the carving this year.

With Halloween quickly upon us, excitement has been brewing since mortals have been anticipating the witching hour by getting a head start on the macabre festivities since September.

But why should we have all the fun participating in the rituals that come with All Hallow's Eve?


A crafty woman thought the tradition of pumpkin carving should be extended to other species–like chickens.

Lissie, a.k.a. TikToker @lissieasebes, posted several clips involving her fine-feathered friends helping carve out her pumpkins, and the unfolding progress has bedazzled obsessed viewers.

The TikToker was prompted to experiment after learning from her "Chicken group" on Facebook that the birds would start pecking out shallow carvings on pumpkins.

Below is the first in a series of clips–which resulted in over 7.4 million views–and it shows Lissie making the initial scrapes on the surfaces of two pumpkins outside her door.

Lissie showed the progress made in the next video revealing the chickens' handiwork.

Sure enough, the two pumpkins flanking her porch had deeper holes from where Lissie initially carved off thin layers of pumpkin skin.

The holes for the eyes, nose, and mouth became more pronounced, much to her delight.

Good job, chickens.

With a little bit more work needing to be done, a user suggested:

"Maybe try shaving a patch of it up so they can get to the yellow part better and peck away!"

It seems taking the note has paid off.

The final result was positively delightful, as you can see for yourself.

Lissie's posts inspired other TikTokers to try the pumpkin/chicken challenge, including @aquahediondalagoon–who went even further with her intricate design.

Were her chickens up for the task?

See for yourself.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Flips Her Car After Belting Out Ironic Britney Spears Lyric In Wild Viral Video

Whether we want to admit it or not, we've all had our fair share of carpool karaoke and maybe even imagined our car as our own personal recording studio.

But TikToker and Instagrammer Kaitlynn McCutcheon may have gotten too into her performance of Britney Spears' classic, "Hit Me Baby, One More Time," when the road and her car both said, "Bet."

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
