Have a cow ... big udder is watching you
BIG Brother chiefs are ready to make housemates cattle it out among themselves — by giving them a COW.
Normally contestants have to look after a brood of chickens in the BB house garden.
But because of the scare over bird flu, producers are looking at alternative farmyard animals for Big Brother 7, which starts this Thursday.
BB chief Phil Edgar-Jones said: “We are thinking about having a cow in the house. We always try to have some animals and a cow is something we are looking at.”
Chickens were introduced in the first series six years ago and contestants have to feed and clean them out.
Housemate Darren Ramsey, who was obsessed with them, scored a £100,000 fee for a Chicken Tonight advert after the first show.
In Big Brother 3, with Jade Goody, one of the birds had to leave the pen because of stress.
In 2004 Michelle called lover Stu “chicken” — and during Celebrity Big Brother 2, Les Dennis spent most of his time chatting to the hens as his marriage hit the rocks.
Meanwhile pals of stunning BB 7 hopeful Bonnie Holt, 19, warned she plans to flirt her way to fame.
Bonnie, 19, from Loughborough, Leics, pushed her way to the front of the queue during auditions in Birmingham and makes no secret of her ambitions.
She will fight it out with 11 rivals for the show’s £70,000 first prize and the opportunities it brings.
