Dookie's first purr is egg-cellent news for this under-arm snuggle bug

There's nothing quite like the first time your scaredy-cat chicken decides you're her personal, under-arm safety nest. Dookie's debut purr is egg-cellent news, and honestly, the fact that she chose the armpit as her prime snuggle real estate? That's a level of trust we should all aspire to. Sure, the video is a little shaky, filming without spooking a feathered friend who startles at her own shadow is a true sport, and we respect the hustle. She's clearly a professional at getting comfy, even if her human has to contort like a pretzel to capture it.
