Horchata

Horchata's fighting a respiratory bug but still clucking strong

Poor Horchata, fighting a respiratory bug with swollen eyes and still clucking strong. That's a feathered friend with serious grit. She's eating, drinking, and staying active, even if she misses her sister Nutmeg. Isolation is no fun, but sometimes you have to play it safe with fowl play... or in this case, fowl illness. Props to /u/Sweet-Able for treating those eyes and letting her rest. Horchata's a fighter, and we're all rooting for her speedy recovery. It reminds me of that other cluck-tastic tale, "From unwanted rooster to beloved Buckbeak doppelgänger", where a little patience turned a nobody into a somebody. Here's hoping Horchata's back to full mischief soon.
