Woman Shares Her ‘Lazy’ Chicken’s Morning Routine—and Everyone’s Here for It
Many pet parents spoil their fur babies rotten—and yes, we’re guilty too! The Husky Fam is no exception. Alongside their energetic Huskies and the cutest mini cows you’ve ever seen, they’re also proud guardians of Princess Alice: a delightfully laid-back Silkie chicken.
Mom has previously shared her mini cows’ serene morning ritual—and at the end of September, it was Princess Alice’s turn to shine. In a charming video, viewers got an intimate look at the Silkie’s pampered start to the day: gentle grooming, a freshly prepared homemade breakfast, and relaxed “girl time” with her feathered friends. The whole routine was equal parts soothing and joyful to watch.
Who knew you could feel genuine envy toward a chicken? Yet here we are. The Husky Fam truly understands the art of thoughtful pet care—and their devotion to Princess Alice resonated widely. The video sparked over 700 heartfelt comments, with fans utterly charmed:
- @Lisa Mischelle: “I can’t leave. I just keep letting it play over and over and over. I love Silkie chickens.”
- @annka: “HOW DO I TELL MY MOM I WANT A BABY CHICKEN IN OUR HOUSE!?!”
- @Dezy: “This chicken lives better than me!”
Can Chickens Eat Eggs?
One moment stole the spotlight: mom cracking fresh eggs right in front of Princess Alice—for her breakfast. Comments flooded in with playful disbelief: “Not you breaking the eggs right in front of her!” and “So we’re not gonna say anything about the chicken eating eggs?? Lol!!!”
It’s a fair question—and the answer is a resounding yes. Eggs are not only safe for chickens but highly beneficial.
Eggs are a powerhouse of nutrition for chickens. They’re rich in complete protein—containing all essential amino acids—and packed with vital nutrients. The egg white delivers lean protein without fat, while the yolk holds most of the vitamins—including naturally occurring vitamin D (a rarity in unfortified foods). As FurPetVo explains, “Eggs are an excellent source of protein and make a great treat for chickens. They’re tasty, nutritious, and eagerly anticipated.”
There’s one smart feeding tip worth remembering: save those eggshells! Rinse them, dry them thoroughly, grind them into a fine powder, and mix them back into your hens’ feed. This simple step replenishes the calcium they use up daily when forming strong, healthy eggshells.
Why This Routine Feels So Special
Princess Alice’s mornings aren’t just about luxury—they reflect a deeper commitment to species-appropriate care. From gentle handling and natural light exposure to nutrient-dense meals and social enrichment, every detail aligns with what FurPetVo recommends for thriving backyard flocks.
Her “lazy” label isn’t laziness at all—it’s contentment. A sign that her needs are consistently met, her environment is calm and secure, and her caregivers understand that rest and routine are just as important as play or exercise.
Whether you're dreaming of adding a Silkie to your flock—or simply appreciating the quiet joy of well-cared-for animals—Princess Alice’s story is a gentle reminder: good care doesn’t have to be complicated. It just has to be kind, consistent, and rooted in understanding.
