Hi there. It was requested that I post an update of my chicken after advice was sought for her lesion.

She was in quarantine for a week and literally on the first day began to immediately look better.

Sorry for such a late update. Enjoy the picture of my Daughter's hand raised hen that follows us around the garden.

Can she be the new fediverse chick?

I tried but received a warning for spam as the filters have Fediverse Chicks blocked now.

She was the cutest young hen in the flock and was doted on by my daughter. Sadly she doesn't have to much time left anymore as she is almost 10 years old.

Lotta love left though, and both she and y'all deserve every bit of it.

When we got pet chickens, I agreed to it in part because they're chickens, and there's no way I could fall in love with any of them. I've lost too many companion animals at this point, and didn't want to ever go through it again.

Yeah. Turns out that I had zero say in whether or not I loved the damn things lol. I can't even stop myself from caring about the feral hens that adopted our tiny flock. But our actual pets? Somehow, they decided that I'm their favorite human, and that was the end of my ability to stay distant.

Now I'm just rolling with it. Spend every evening cuddling with one or another of them.

Totally worth it
