A ferocious python raided a farmer's chicken coop and ate her prized rooster in Prachuap Khiri Khan, western Thailand.<br /><br />Owner Orasa Boonyuen, 26, contacted the rescue team after she found the python in the coop when she went to feed her chickens on Monday July 20 morning.<br /><br />The rescuers and the owner teamed up to catch the enormous 10ft long serpent that is still full with the chicken it ate.<br /><br />The relieved owner said she noticed that her prized rooster was missing before finding that the snake had sneaked in her coop.<br /><br />She said: "I went to feed the chickens as usual but when I noticed that my favourite rooster was missing, I took a closer look and saw the snake.<br /><br />"I rushed out and tried to calm down and contacted the rescue team to catch it. I think the python might have been starving and slithered to find food inside."<br /><br />The serpent was put into a sack before the rescuers released it back to the wild away from the village.
