Yes. Try a halal butcher.

When I lived in north London there was a halal butcher where I regularly
shopped, primarily because their prices were cheaper than the
supermarket. Their chickens were plucked but not drawn. If you asked for
one, they would take it down from the ceiling hooks on which it hung and
put it on the butchers block. Then they removed the feet and the head,
and then somehow drew the chicken with an enormous cleaver. I can't
remember how that worked. The result, though, was that when I came to
finish prepping the bird for cooking, there were often quite a few
"unborn" eggs of varying sizes. They were great fried in a bit of real
butter.
