The founder of the museum, known as the Cave of Caves, said the unlikely quadruped is already dying because of its condition and it will be euthanised and stuffed by a local pharmacist.
"Misuse of hormones led to such abnormality," said Abdel Kareen Abu Znaid, the pharmacist who will be preserving the chicken.
The bird will be displayed in the cave alongside other unusual creatures, like a two-headed goat.
