Well, my landlord’s chicken is clearly sick. They’re out of town and the neighbors upstairs who were tasked with taking care of the chicken are nowhere to be found to tell me wtf is going on. So I guess I’m just cross covering this chicken with no sign-out. TYPICAL

Update! I heard back from the landlord. The chicken is molting...which I guess is a thing chickens do and is fine. In my defense, the chicken looks really fucked up so I still think my clinical instincts were mostly on point given that I am not a doctor for chickens.

This is a representative stock photo because #HIPAA but this is essentially what it looked like, half buried under a mound of its own feathers. That’s a #rapidresponse first ask questions later kind of look and I know you all know exactly what I mean. #medtwitter
