The Hannah Montana star, 17, admits she stole chickens from a California farm when she discovered they would be fed to snakes at a nearby zoo that evening. “They were gonna take the chickens and feed them to the snakes at the end of the night and my dad was like, ‘That’s the most awful thing I’ve ever heard’,” said Miley. “They pulled me and my little brother Braison aside, and he was like, ‘Put one in your pocket Miley, Braison put one in your pocket, and we’ll get outta here.’ So we’re like, ‘OK, dad said we can steal chickens.’

“So we, like, shoved them in our pockets and then we’d take them home to my mom… We were staying at, like, the Four Seasons or something, so we had to put them in the bathtub.”

Miley then revealed how the family got the birds back to their family farm in Nashville, Tennessee.

“My mom told, like, the flight attendant and everyone… they were special birds and they couldn’t go underneath the plane,” she said.

“We kept them for a few years, but they had a natural death.”
