An 'after' photo of the valuable fighting cock's encounter this morning with a python in Pathum Thani province.

PATHUM THANI — A prize cock’s fighting career was brought to an end this morning when he was eaten by a python.

The cock, worth 40,000 baht, was in his pen at the home of his owner in northern metro Bangkok when the 4-meter python somehow snuck in and ate the cock.

Janjira Jan, 30, said she arrived to feed the cock Saturday morning but found the python in the pen instead of his proud feathers, with a visibly swollen belly. She immediately alerted local rescue workers, who came to capture the snake.

I had to laugh at this................"My cock was eaten by a huge snake"!!

Had a few snakes come in to eat my cock too !

snuck in and ate the cock.

I know that Python...paid her bar fine...

That sounds worse than what happened to the two elderly guys in Chiang Mai. They only lost money.

Thai men will bet on anything, so maybe they should set up a Python - fighting ring. Would be a longer show than the cock-fighting.

Perhaps a few neighbours are having a Sunday morning lie in!

Which just goes to prove that no matter how tough you are, or a good fighter, there is always someone better.
