Transcript

I'm currently petsitting and I'm looking after a disabled chicken. She really struggles to keep her neck upright, so the whole time she's just like this, basically, upside down. So she lives her whole life pretty much upside down. She does occasionally keep her head up, but she really struggles and realizes that she can't basically. And then she just starts doing this. There go. I think she's getting better since I first came. She's definitely getting better. Since I first came, we've been giving her like lots of different vitamins and egg yolk, ironically. But I just feel really bad for her.
