chickenpy
A Python implementation of the chicken esoteric programming language by Torbjörn Söderstedt.
What's chicken?
A chicken program only contains the tokens "chicken", " " and "\n". The number of chickens per line represent an opcode, which is loaded onto the same stack as the program and executed directly.
For more details, view the original implementation and spec here, or view the Esolang page for chicken.
