The United States Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has warned travellers to think twice about how they bring certain items on planes after finding a gun stuffed in an uncooked chicken.

The TSA posted various photos of a gun shoved inside a pre-packaged raw chicken found at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood international airport in Florida.

"We hate to beak it to you here, but stuffing a firearm in your holiday bird for travel is just a baste of time," the TSA said on their Instagram.

"Feather you like it or not, there are rules for travelling with guns and ammunition."

The post received over 32,000 likes and many people thought the attempt at smuggling the gun was hilarious.

One person called it "ridiculous", while another said it "must have been from Florida".

The TSA allows people to travel with firearms, but only by following certain rules.
