From
O: The Intimate History of the Orgasm by Jonathan Margolis:
A less obvious form of orgasmic pleasure via oral sex occasioned by the proximity of animals was the subject of a slightly shocking speech in the House of Lords one June evening in 2003. Lord Lucas of Crudwell and Dingwall … proposing an amendment to a new Sexual Offences Bill, brought their Lordships’ attention to an old agricultural practice he knew of called avisodomy. This is oral sex in which a chicken’s anus is used; and not just any chicken. His description, as chronicled by Hansard, is something of a collector’s item. Avisodomy, he told the hushed benches, is “the practice of breaking a hen’s neck at the moment before penetration so that you benefit from the spasms that the animal undergoes afterwards”. Lord Lucas professed himself against avisodomy, but was concerned that it might avoid being outlawed because the chicken was clinically dead at the time its co-conspirator was enjoying his orgasm.
And, indeed, here’s the noble Lord’s speech
in full.

I don't understand this use of the term "oral."
Co-conspirator? Do chickens really conspire with people to do this?
Apropos of which, here's a link to a review of a documentary about that hugely improbable story I told you about of a boy masquerading as an MI5 agent and arranging his own murder:
