Hilarity recently ensued online after popular Minecraft streamer Darryl "BadBoyHalo" Noveshosch realized that his namesake happens to be a chicken!

In what is probably one of the most hilariously bizarre occurrences to have taken place on primetime television, a self-described "chicken enthusiast" recently revealed on Fox News that she had named her pet rooster after none other than BadBoyHalo.

After this unexpected mention on the news channel, the popular streamer found himself on the Twitter trending page. He reacted to the development with a tongue-in-cheek response that invited a slew of hilarious reactions from fans online:

The incident took place during a recent segment on Fox News, where host Tucker Carlson interacted with "chicken enthusiast" and former contestant on "The Bachelor," Tiara Soliem.

The duo addressed recent guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control regarding Salmonella outbreaks being possibly linked to backyard poultry.

On being asked what the name of the pet chicken she was holding in her arms was, Tiara came up with an unexpected answer that sent Minecraft fans into a collective meltdown online:

"No, no, this is not Sheila. This is BadBoyHalo, one of the roosters that I hatched back in February."

Her answer not only ended up leaving show host Tucker Carlson bewildered but also invited a plethora of humorous reactions online.
