I had a dream last night about being on an old-style sailing ship. The crew member in the crow’s nest was a chicken. It was a little odd, so I asked why there was a chicken on lookout. The quartermaster said, “Well, their heads can lock in place while they’re moving, so their line of sight is stable. They don’t get seasick.” The chicken agreed, and said it was a decent enough job for a crewmember without hands.
I woke up, and obviously was a little confused by what the hell my brain threw at me. But it does posit the question, do chickens get seasick?
Mostly unrelated but my cat never seems to get seasick. In fact her sea legs are superior to mine so long as she stays off the slippery table.
You live on a boat? Im a little jealous. I love sailing and have little access to it in a land locked state.
Yep! Going on my fourth year now. Loving every minute except when the wind isn’t playing along (aka this entire year omg I just want to get places 😭)
