Many of the comments here talk about "selling" the chickens in the afternoon for $0. These solutions are all in error.
Selling something involves receiving money for it. You can't "sell" something for no money at all, because that's not what the word means! Zero dollars is not money, it is literally nothing.
Check any dictionary, or test this with any of your friends: "Here, take this chicken. Don't give me any money for it. It's free. Now, did I sell it to you or give it to you?"
Beware of overly clever solutions to a problem. The cleverness of the solution may blind you to the fact that you've simply misread the question or misunderstood the plain wording of the words.
